It was interesting watching a bird catch bugs attracted by the lights. It would swoop through and catch one every so often..

Thats good your off for a few days Steve. I know how working for 6 days straight feels. it is worse when you work 12 days straight.

I bet it was. but I know one has to have some time away from the office to reset. I use to work 6 days a week when I worked at the cemetery. That was not always fun at all. Especially since it was only 2 of us working there.
