PHOTOS • BY JULIE WIATT

On December 22, the Foggy Bottom Morris Men observed the longest night of the year with ritual dances at the Takoma Park gazebo. Voice photo editor Julie Wiatt was on hand to capture the leaps and bounds.

Julie Wiatt moved to Takoma Park with husband “Coach G” Weinstein and son Zak during cicada season May 1987. They (Julie, G and Zak, not the cicadas) were part of a migratory pattern from an Adams Morgan group house. Before coming to this area she was a wanderer, taking photos in St Croix, working on a community newspaper in East Boston, tracking bats in Panama, studying biology and art in New York City. Julie loves the Voice, considering it a wonderful way to know and celebrate Takoma Park and Silver Spring.
