Get 'em before they go

It's firefly season you guys, but only for a couple more weeks. They are impossible to take pictures of, so here's one from the interweb.

This year, I went to Chinzanso, a really pretty hotel with beautiful grounds that's famous for hotaru, and last night to Shikinomori Koen (四季の森公園) near Nakayama station in Yokohama. Right now is Heike firefly season. Heike fireflies are smaller than Genji fireflies, I guess because the Genji clan won.

    Ohh that sounds so beautiful. Do you have fireflies in Texas? I don't remember any but I was small. I heard there are a lot in the midwest.
