Boise:
July 24, 2002: A reader notes: I am sooo excited! I saw a firefly up here in Boise, Idaho. I used to visit my grandparents in Perryville Arkansas and see them by the dozen when I was a little girl. They lived by a lake so I guess maybe that has something to do with it. WOW! I am sooo happy. It was the week of the Fourth of July and late at night when I saw the only one I've ever seen in Boise. I was just in my yard by the garden and all of a sudden he started flashing. Most beautiful thing I'd seen in years and it brought such joy to me. Thing is, my neighbor across the street has a small pond and half my neighbors irrigate.... I sure wish I'd see more of the little guys. I was looking up what could attract them on the internet when I saw your site. Thanx so much.
