Oh, come on! It can’t be that dry there yet! It hasn’t rained here in a month, but it’s still burning season! This is wildfire country! Yeah, you’re probably half lit! but there was a pretty good wildfire in Oklahoma in the last month or so! So maybe I stand corrected! You’re probably not far from there!

Yes I’m lit but….

I guess it says it is pretty dry there!

Yup for the last few years.

And ohhhh the irony, says the half lit.

Spring clean up, still got some winter holdouts!

Few holdouts here too.

A few?

Getting some strawberries going this year. Yesterday I got the used dirt flushed, recharged and watered for activation and now just giving the soil time to come to life. Moved a shelf into the screenhouse for them. The soil prep was a little different... calls for bark fines in the mix and I wondered why I'm not also throwing a little in for my cannabis soil rebuilds. I had some Kellogg's garden soil so I used that for the fines. (Turns out it's supposedly ideal).

First of the year. They’re on a mass decline. It’d be a shame for kids not to enjoy them.

I’m guessing those are fireflies. All the shit people spray on their lawns is killing them off. I still get a lot in my little yard. Instantly transported back to childhood.

We have black "clicker" bugs out here that look like that. They move their heads up and down in a manner that produces a clicking sound. I don't know what they are, that's just what I call them.

That was a firefly.

Click beetles. We have em here as well. Ours come in two sizes. The really big black and grays and the all black.

Where I was at as a kid in New England we had them in the woods behind the house but there were never swarms of them. Out here we have bioluminescent algae that sometimes turns the ocean water brown, and in the dark any splashing of the water causes it to illuminate blue. A real trippy phenom is walking in the wet sand and every time you take a step the sand glows around your foot. When waves break, they look like blue zippers. Even splashing some with your hand makes it glow.

That would be cool. When I was underway the wake of the ship would light up from the plankton and that was cool too.

I grew up with firefly’s and at kegger’s they were a hoot.

I'm going to have my first ever outdoor grow this summer. Just a small grow in my backyard in 5 gal smart pots. In the summer fireflies are all over my yard. Going to be a interesting summer. I just can't wait.

Saw this coming.
