Some of the stories in this collection are completely true. Others are true at heart but enjoyed a heavy dowsing of fiction. However, they all share a common thread: the jarring everyday adventures we have with our friends and family that glow the brightest in our hearts as we get older. This book explores the nature of those backyard catastrophes and back alley occurrences that stick with us forever and keep a connection alive with the people we care about even as life takes us all in different directions. Those stories become the bright little points that define our past while the less important stuff fades into the darkness. Catching bright memories from your past is sort of like catching fireflies and depending on what you keep them in you might be adding a little pepper to the tiny buggers. Now sit back, relax, and enjoy your stay where the folks are friendly, the pets are part of the family, and there are always plenty of lightning bugs to scoop up on a hot summerÕs eve.
