Absolutely lots of fond childhood memories of "lightning bugs" always called them that..they've been lighting up here early a couple of weeks ago. If I recall it was always in July that they started.
This season is very odd here, the temps so up and down, the amount of growth on all my trees is unbelievable! I had the Maple cut back a few years ago for the first time ever since we moved here in 1983...since then they have grown double time and now the branches are leaning on top of the skylights in the sun porch, only when it rains and the weight holds them down. Thats an easy fix, son is going to cut back those annoying branches...I will need to have the Maples and a couple of other trees cut back in the fall..and don't mention how the weeds are more than ever and so many new ones!
But yes, I was out sitting on the deck last night watching the Lightening Bugs remembering when the children would catch a few and keep them in a jar for a bit. Fun times, Gods things are the best!
