There are specific things I love about the South.
I love sitting outside at night, especially summer nights.
The air is so thick it feels like someone covered you with a wet sheet in the middle of a sauna.
People talk about how southern nights are quiet, but I find them anything but. The screech of frogs and cicadas filling the darkness.
June bugs and moths circling the glow of street lamps.
Lightening bugs dancing in yards.
And no matter where you are there are stars to be seen. And even if you're in the middle of a city it's rarely more than a 20 minute drive to the middle of nowhere.
The slowness of summertime is maybe my favorite, although a little hurry and rush is never a terrible thing.
These are some of the things I love most.
