Fireflies and Stargazing

May 4, 2022 Last week, I thought it would be fun to walk down to the pier and stargaze. From the end of the pier, the view over Lake Guntersville provides a wide open space to see the sky. As we walked down to the water, we saw fireflies flashing alongside the road and then […]
