Do you remember hearing the buzzing of June bugs on summer days in the South? These bright green beetles always showed up late to the party in the Piedmont of North Carolina. I’ve never seen one before July. So, why are they called June bugs? We may never know.
You’re right about us losing trees & other things in nature. It is sad. In the early eighties we had picture frames made by a man in Franklin NC. They were made out of wormy chestnut. They are beautiful. He had told us they were dying off. We would have never known, if he hadn’t taken the time to tell us.
This why I look forward to reading your writings, always learn something. Thank you!
Brings back a lot of memories. I tied thread around June bugs and stuck a stick in the ground and watched them fly in circles! It is surprising how God works in nature. Thanks for a wonderful read. Love and Hugs!
I never did the June Bug thing. I’m not sure why…

Google the images of how big chestnuts were, it’s wild. Also it’s not too late to make a June bug kite haha they’ll be here soon.
