s u m m e r g u 2 i 0 d 1 e 2 Clouds made the eclipse and Venus’ transit across the sun a little hard to see, but we still know summer is under way . While the rest of the seasons morph through the different shadows of sopping wetness, the knowledge that here comes the sun, it’s all right, chills Eugene right out in the sunshine. Whether your summer is festivaling, floating or vineyarding, the fast and free or lazy and peaceful pace — you pick — of the Eugene’s other season says you have a cornucopia in front of you, so please partake. close-in OUT/LOUD Music Festival: Nina Sky, Andrea Gib- son, Tender Forever, Krudas Cubensi, noon, Kesey Square. $5.
