things I saw and smelled and heard and felt today:
a giant snapping turtle on my morning run.
the first cicadas/”momma bugs” of the season warming up their vocal cords.
a little gnome statue someone had left in the hollow of a tree
rooting for the two little baby blue jays learning to fly in our backyard.
the joy of having a good sweat session after I got home from running.
the smell of fresh cut grass in the neighborhood.
the smell of freshly cut hay in the pastures next to Langley’s Trail.
the smell of chlorine at the swimming pool.
the shrieks of kids having a water fight at the park.
wild raspberries and blackberries. will have to wait for a week until they’re ripe enough to eat during my morning runs.
all in one day.
