The Mistress is right though. Here on the mid Atlantic East Coast...it's a tad early for us yet. Same with crickets and katydids.

I too remember having a container my mom bought me for lightening bugs. It had a plastic leaf up the center and air hole for ventilation. But for some time we set them free. The little bastard kid who lived next door used to catch them and then smear them with his feet. He said there just bugs. They were magical to me. My mother said I once hit and knocked him to the ground. She said she would never have to worry about me after seeing that.<br /><br />Our fireflies should arrive by end of june.Mistress Maddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02098940220513091207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-167118023573797856.post-13807950854588426172018-06-08T00:44:11.838-04:002018-06-08T00:44:11.838-04:00I've never, ever seen a firefly, if you don...I've never, ever seen a firefly, if you don't count one of my favorite shows. My father was from Kansas City, MO. and he would tell us stories about growing up there. Catching fireflies, and sleeping in the park in summer were just two of them. I used to want to live on a farm, then I remembered: SPIDERS! So I'll stay where I can rack up the body count on my oh so modern popcorn ceiling, and protect balder half from any wayward lizard or snake that might wander inside. Okay, lizards, snakes don't come around. <br /><br />I do love the way you write.Deedleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17220174067034720943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-167118023573797856.post-16509829685105205712018-06-07T23:54:28.190-04:002018-06-07T23:54:28.190-04:00Your post brings back memories of growing up in Mi...Your post brings back memories of growing up in Missouri and watching the fireflies in the country. It truly was a magical time. I don't know why fireflies are so mesmerizing. <br />rjjs8878noreply@blogger.com
