The Sound of Summer
Rainy season is over and it finally feels like summer here now. The days are hot and muggy, while the nights are, well, hot and muggy. The rice is growing high in the fields and the sound of semi (cicadas) fills the air. I love that sound since the wild chirping brings to mind all the best things about summer: hot, sweaty bike rides and cold beer.

I, too, love the cicadas!
This year our 17-year cicadas were out in force in Cades Cove. Not som much around the house; mostly we had a lower number of the annual ones. In the cove in June it sounded like Hiroshima in August!
