…I think I’m going to experience my first ever real hot Arkansas summer. It’s been in the mid to upper 90s this last week. I think I’ll do okay with the heat.
Fireflies have been fluttering about our yard and for some crazy reason I wanted to catch me a jar-full….so I spent Memorial day evening sitting in the driveway waiting for some to fly near {have I mentioned that I won’t venture out into the yard for fear of fleas, ticks,chiggers, and copperheads?}. I wasn’t able to catch one in my nifty little net…but Thom caught one later {barehanded!} and brought it in to me.
It stayed in the jar overnight. I didn’t see it light up one time. I felt bad the next day so I decided to let him go….and then he wouldn’t, or couldn’t fly. I wonder if I took away it’s magic trying to catch some of it for myself?

Do you have air Gina? We have window units, but are holding off on putting them in (to save money). I haven't minded the heat here yet either although I hear this weekend may be a scorcher!!
