We have had thunder storms all weekend. It made for muddy yards and nervous pups.
Our routine has been a mess.
Having missed the morning walk today we walked at night. The insects were out - those irritating no-see-ums as well as the crickets and cicadas singing their songs.
Then we saw the lightning bugs. This year we have seen a solo bug every now and again, but never more than one. We followed the intermittent flash of the fireflies as we walked into the park. It was cool and quiet - so like our favorite family retreat. But that is another river...and we will be there soon...and hopefully there will be more lightning bugs performing their merry mating dance.
