Near Fresno in CA. I think it's too dry here for them.

Goodness! They are thick as thieves here in Kentucky. We used to put a bunch of them in a jar (holes punched in the lid) and take them into a dark room. We would always release them before bedtime.

Me too! I haven't seen a live firefly ever. Where do you live, Jay Melo?

One of the things on my bucket list. Someday, I want to see fireflies. We don't have them where I live.
