If you haven't heard about the 13 year cicadas in Nashville, be glad. This is the year that they emerge, and oh my, have they emerged. Last week, we started hearing them getting really loud. But since we're in a new neighborhood we really didn't see them. So when the boys and I went to Centennial Park, and it was swarming with cicadas, they were in HEAVEN.
They line the trees, which is where they bury their eggs. The eggs then travel down the tree, into the roots, where they live for 13 years. I can't believe that the next time Nashville sees cicadas, my boys will be driving --- insert tears :(
It was our first, of many, many, more experiences with cicadas.
