cherries

I went to another party at Roberto's with Floriana and Marco. It was alot of fun. It was so hot yesterday and Humid. There are great big cherry treeds in his back yard and all the cherries were ripe. We all ate far too many beautifully shiny red and purple cherries and picked baskets full. I think I will attempt to make a cherry pie this evening...even thoug I have no clue about what to do with cherries. There were some really beautuful moments.

When the sun set it glowed a bright red and the world was pink. at the same moment a thunder storm was passing in the east. SO one way was the sun set and the other there was a thunderstorm and of course a wonderful breeze. Later we built an enormous bon fire. There were lightning bugs every where making the fields seem electric or magical. the bon fire was made of alot of brush so it was a sparky fire. the sparks of the fire flew up to the sky where they tried to join the stars, however they fail and instead snowed down upon our heads. Everything was quite beautiful.

I am excited to see my father...who is coming tomorrow?! that is really crazy. Hopefully it will rain sometime and break the heat so that hiking around the countryside is bearable.
