Proof Positive

Last night we saw summer's first fireflies come out.  There were only a couple of twinkles in the yard but it was there - proof positive of summer.  I was walking barefoot through the soft, wet grass and Vegas dawdled around every bush, every leaf, every twig as if it was a brand new discovery.

"Did you see this rock?!?  Wait, wait - what about this one - holy cow!! (It's a rock bed).  I am watching the fireflies and she pads over behind me, nose pointed down and nudges my hand with the top of her head.

I ruffle her ear and she's off.  Sweet girl, sweet summer night.
