They should be here within a week or two. After reading this post, I really cannot wait. The fireflies here in our yard are spectacular. They should be here within a week or two.

They would draw me back to Ohio in the summer with all my kids in the 100 degree heat just to let them experience fireflies everywhere. Your writing brought it all back into my mind - brilliant.

I'm wondering how you could stay away this long, and now that you're going back, how can you ever leave? These are the same questions that I ask myself about going to PA, and I never get to stay as long as you do. (deep wistful sigh) Mmm, Amish farms - that term has such visual impact for me. I love it when green wins out over all the other colors! Beautiful images! I’m wondering how you could stay away this long, and now that you’re going back, how can you ever leave?

Stunning piece. Indiana is full of "weee roads". I was more like your son, made me car sick. Driving from Winchester, to Marion, to Ft. Wayne, to Lake Wawasee... fireflies, corn fields, Amish farms. To have lived in Indiana, guarantees a visit by the scribe you described. Beautiful, Jennifer. Stunning piece. Indiana is full of “weee roads”. I was more like your son, made me car sick.

I can remember, as a little kid, walking through the woods with my neighbor's dad who was an avid glass bottle collector. He told us the "Jersey Devil" lived in those woods. I remember straining my eyes to find the "devil." Oh, and just a few minutes ago I heard that Slaid Cleaves song I was telling you about: (Come back to the) "Green Mountains and Me" on his new album "Everything You Love WIll Be Taken Away". Is this the album you were listening to? Or Broke Down. That was the song I listened to faithfully on my walkman one summer. I was having trouble conceiving and decided to "get healthy" so I started walking every day. My twins were born about 10 months later : )) The wheeeee road I remember was in south jersey through a patch of forest known as Muttontown Woods, very tall trees, driving through a “tree tunnel.” I can remember, as a little kid, walking through the woods with my neighbor’s dad who was an avid glass bottle collector.
