Nel lives in Georgia right now, and she said she sees the luminous fireflies all the time at night. They're so big and pretty and really do light up. I've never heard of the dew poisoning before. That was an interesting story about your dad. I always delight in hearing your stories, Susie. They bring back a few memories of my own.<br /><br />love, ~SheriRed Rose Alleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02685747099912989862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7542626754689382068.post-79459464225347972112016-08-10T07:16:44.158-07:002016-08-10T07:16:44.158-07:00Susie, It seems strange how many of those old sayi...Susie, It seems strange how many of those old saying seem to have roots. Roots in our folks' old living ways. I had never heard of dew poisoning. I liked the poem of the foggy morns. Blessings to you, hope it's not so many dog days there. This summer has been supper hot. xoxo, love, SusieSusiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06425051654313691986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7542626754689382068.post-50961483901875564482016-08-09T07:15:56.466-07:002016-08-09T07:15:56.466-07:00I've heard of Dog Days all of my life --but ha...I've heard of Dog Days all of my life --but hadn't heard of Dew Poisoning. Interesting... I had also heard about the rooster crowing at night --as being bad luck....<br /><br />We do count the number of Fogs in August --as an indication of how much snow we will get in Winter.<br /><br />Hot and VERY DRY here in TN... I'm SO ready for FALL.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7542626754689382068.post-61109394094371969542016-08-08T12:58:47.267-07:002016-08-08T12:58:47.267-07:00Loved this, Susie!

Our chickens are big and the hot weather makes for a lot of stressful times. Hope you're staying comfortable these days.lil red henhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15494641068959278096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7542626754689382068.post-62328677349986534402016-08-07T15:23:17.332-07:002016-08-07T15:23:17.332-07:00That's a lot I've never heard!
