My mom shares my love of the place we call “the levee”. So, on the second night of her visit, we decided to go for a walk there. I had forgotten it was the night before the full moon, the so called “honeymoon” or “strawberry moon”. It was just as lovely the night before.

My mom really enjoyed hearing the frogs, seeing deer and fireflies. I love all of these things too, but living here and experiencing most of it so often, I forget how neat it is. We’re fortunate to live in a place with open space, green fields and abundant wildlife.

Silly dog, trying to chase down the moon.

I was going to share a two minute long video of frogs croaking with you, but it won’t share. Bummer, huh?
