Found an interesting website for patterning the sun at different days of the year and times of the day. It also models the shadow effect of surrounding objects at various heights at different locations. Interesting tool for planning planting and stand locations. Apparently it has an app for android platforms as well.

It's better to wear out, than to rust out!

We built our house with a passive solar design. This site would have kicked butt then! In fact, I've been charting the afternoon sun to place a tree to shade my firepit. The damn thing is too hot to sit at until dark in the summer. This site might help quite a bit. Thanks.
