Fireflies and Starlight

It is twelve-fifteen in the morning.  Outside the skies are totally clear.  The frogs are croaking and the crickets are ...m... cricketing?  I couldn't resist going out and laying on the slide to watch the stars.  It was beautiful.  While admiring the night sky, I noticed the flickering of a couple fireflies floating around in the back yard!!!  What a treat.  I love living here.  I love the peace and quite.  I love being serenaded every night by the noises of the dark.  I'm not so crazy about the faint smell of a skunk passing by though... but I guess it is part of the package.  I wish Duane were here.
