Last night we were able to camp on our friends’ farm! It was so amazing to be able to visit with others (at a distance, of course), and for Wren to run around with another child. They roamed in the pastures and the forest, met the sheep and chickens…it was so nice for her to feel that freedom. She said that her “heart was so happy.” That makes my heart very happy! We put our tent out in the pasture where we would have a good view of the fireflies, the fireworks, and the moon (and supposed eclipse).
Rick was very happy that he was allowed to fly his new drone! He got a pretty nice video, and I’ve taken a screen shot to show you this beautiful place!
We set up camp as the sun was setting, and I got my cameras ready for the light show!
The fireworks were an unexpected surprise. When our friends told us that everyone would be shooting them off, we thought they would be the “at home version”…we didn’t realize we were in for this big of a display! The town cancelled the fireworks…so others decided that the show must go on!
The fireflies (lightning bugs) were even more spectacular than the fireworks! I haven’t seen this many in a very long time!
We were expecting a lunar eclipse, and I suppose it happened (at least that’s what google says!), but we didn’t see a change in the moon. It was really pretty, though!
It was a beautiful night! Hopefully we will go back again soon! We didn’t record a hymn last night, but Wren has been recording some more of her compositions. This is the first movement from her Quartet in F for cello!
Bravo, Wren! Your piece is fun, interesting, and very well constructed. Encore!
Thanks!! Second movement coming soon! Tomorrow, I think! She’s still writing the third.
Bravo, Wren! Your piece is fun, interesting, and well constructed. Encore!!
So soothing for me at the end of a heavy day. Thank you.
Looking forward to the day when Wren will run around with Daniel and Sophia in our Manipur farm…..we can look at the milky way…it is beautiful there.
I what a night! The drone pic was so cool, all the pics are great and Wren’s composition is delightful. If I didn’t know better, I would think it is an early American hymn!!
