Ryan has developed quite the obsessions lately. An obsession that is loud, creepy, and altogether weird. What is the obsession, you ask?!
Cicadas. More specifically the 17 year cicadas (also known as Brood X) that are invading Indiana right now.
It is a common occurrence for Ryan to drive with his windows down listening for their chirps. Inevitably he says, “Did you hear that?! That’s an awesome sound.”
Driving to dinner the other night, we had a very close encounter with them. They were EVERYWHERE!
Ryan even picked them up and was cradling them when we got out of the car. Ewww!!!
I get the idea of why he finds them fascinating. The fact that they burrow in the ground and only emerge every 17 years is crazy. The actual bug itself though….is gross.
