Me and the cicadas


Now that I've been vaccinated, I'm starting to think about emerging from my 14 months of isolation. It's kind of amusing how avoiding humanity has become so ingrained as a habit. The experience has not been 100% negative, either, if I'm honest. Still, I'm keen to get back into the groove. Next weekend, we are going to a concert outdoors, and we'll be traveling some this summer, too. I am very happy about that, as well as the prospect of international travel at some point sooner rather than later. The Brood X cicadas are returning this summer, after being gone for 17 years. That emergence will occur north of here, but we will have our usual level of summer cicada activity, I'm sure.

As usual, I hope you have good light this weekend.
