Lightning ride with the lightning bugs

Isn't it awesome when you surprisingly find yourself in a situation that is reminiscent of a great childhood memory?

I took advantage of summer solstice extra daylight tonight to go for a fast bike ride.  Just as the sun was spectacularly setting, I pedaled as fast as I could on my single speed bike, dodging fireflies in the warm summer wind.   

I didn't keep a journal as a boy, but I'm pretty sure that it would have read roughly like the above 25 years ago. 

Appreciating the small stuff is surely a perpetual piece of life wisdom.  Hope you find yourself in a situation like this soon...a surprise joy that's sure to net a smile.
