Seeing and catching fireflies is always such a reverent and joyful feeling for Californians. The first time I went to the east coast, I went outside after a massive thunderstorm and there were just HUNDREDS of them and I ran through the lawn catching them and I was so happy.

When Meriadoc moved to DC and saw them for the first time I think there was similar excitement.

Same with everything being OLD. There's HISTORY out here. That wasn't all knocked down by earthquakes!!
