You know how beautiful our garden is. There is a new and interesting flower or plant every few feet. It takes a lot of work to keep it looking good. Cindy got home from work early last night and corralled Eric to help with some of the weeding and mulch spreading activities. I was exhausted from a long day of sitting in an empty office, so I just cooked dinner.
Something Cindy and Eric did prompted the must beautiful display of fireflies that any of us have ever seen. I'm still excited to see a few at twilight. Last night, the entire front yard was full of little sparkling lights. The weeping cherry and the azalea shrubs looked like they had been strung with blinking white lights. Most of the flowers had a light or two on them.
Amazing.
Sorry I can't share a picture. I thought about it five minutes after we went inside. With a digital camera, you know if you've been successful immediately. What I didn't expect was that when I went back with my camera, all the lights would be stripped from the trees. We were back to a couple of guys winking around some of the flowers. I wish I had words (and pictures) to express how lucky I felt that we three should have seen this fleeting light show.
Amazing.
