I went out of town to Alabama for a week, and I didn't have much internet access there, so I'm behind. But I will catch up! I will! I'm backdating all of these. It's actually the 17th.

Then, I started thinking about catching lightning bugs when I was a kid, and how I should do that with my kids when it' ( Read more... )
