You gotta get out more, Cris.

Now, for that remark about you being the "old" one... I take exception to that remark, young lady!

If YOU are "old", I must be pretty darn near ANCIENT, but I still don't even qualify for AARP membership yet! HA!


It HAS to be getting close to time for my late morning nap by now...

I tease J-L that if I were to grow a beard I would be mistaken for a bear and brought to the zoo.

Ive basically spent 1/2 my short time on this great planet in Alabama and the first lightning bug I saw was down there. I see VERY few of them here in VA. I used to do the same with the mason jars. Mom would always switch out my lids with aluminum foil though so she wouldnt need to buy more lids!

We had lightning bugs on the hot summer nights in july and august in NH...

they were not very numerous, so you were lucky to catch more than a dozen low enough to catch
