I feel like I have been on an island somewhere. I have been sick, y'all. Maybe allergies? Who knows, but my sinus's and my ears are just now recovering. I hope the predicted rain surfaces soon, and clears out this stagnant air.
I had a moment this AM and wanted to share. Writers will appreciate this one.
The locusts are nesting in my oak tree in the front yard. Yep, that same one that we put our swing under this spring. I stood out there under the arms of this mighty tree, and honestly, the sound was deafening. I am no bug person, and couldn't tell you for sure, but I think they are cicadas. Aren't those the ones with all the noisy attitudes?
Under that tree, in the deep shade, with all that noise, and my ears still sort of fuzzy, it was like being in a horror movie. I got chills in ninety degree weather. I did!

Is it a cicada year again already? Does the entire country have the same seven year cycle on cicadas? Or do different parts of the planet have different seven year cycles?
Hmmm.
Heck I don't know. I just know that whatever these critters are, they are NOISY.
