Kabu..
You have all kinds of creatures up there, from the big to the small...this little one looks like it could scare a person if caught in the moonlight and then flying away.

It sounds like maybe condensation and light reflecting in the fogs, but the fairies sound good too, something like the borealis, not sure of the spelling, but the lights over Alaska and northern places. You seem to be well placed with your natural settings. Cleaning those nuisance refrigerators works so much better than baking soda which can wind up smelling worse than the original smells!

Yes I am glad you are trying to achieve the high standard
set by my cleaner. the trouble is she keeps throwing good things
out like broken saucepan lids which we usuns know make
good dishes for cats to eat from. Yes there are lots of
funny critters dancing around here. I think they call them fairies.

I was stuck trying to clean out the cabinet below where the leak in my pipes poured a sink full of water and now its mildew smelling

I think I would rather see that then almost anything else out there! Mother Nature will always be the best artist . . .

You're so right. Taps always touches on something meaningful.
Thanks to the power outage we had, I did get at that fridge cleanout job I'd been letting slide for too many months. My mother would think I'm a lazy slob. I've never seen those will 'o the wisp fairy lights, but in this area we have lightning bugs on early summer nights.

Kabu, I always love reading your posts, there is so much there that makes me look at things just a little differently!

I need to learn more about different plants. I did not like botany and not and outdoors nature person. I like to look at the beautiful flowers and plants. My husband and children considered me too clean, neat and organized. I had to learn to step back and look the other way on some messes. :-)

Hey Kabu :-) So thrilling to read you once more . I am back ( thank G-d ) and again loving your post, glad that you had a great visit down under and are now enjoying your Northern Camelot together with your dear Willie. As for myself I have not been so lucky to encounter those mysterious lights but I will be sure to look for them next time I am walking the woods at night. Be well my dear friend Imissed you :-) xoxoxo

Reading this reminds me that I have to get a move on when it comes to my cleaning...It's neat reading bloggers interacting with one another through their entries.

I figured that if any blogiteers had them around, it would be you and Wiley. I haven't seen one recently for I don't go out at night anymore, but there is a place in our woods where every year a fairy ring shows up for a bit.

Well, let me try again...Kabu!!!
Tippling will inevitably create ignis fatuus and other assorted luminous phenomena whenever indulged in to excess - and I know whereof I speak! But I am disappointed that you should have descended into those swampy regions...
