  11. Ashe and Resha continued in their efforts to get more supplies for their home base while they figured out a way to get ahold of the DSO headquarters to give them their location. Suddenly a antlion popped up from under the sand and hissed at the pair, ready to make them its breakfast. 

    Suddenly Resha was pulled under the sand, was she in quick sand or was there a bigger threat they needed to consider??

    Just a little nature nostalgia about my 5th grade teacher's science demonstration and a really cool insect we used to take for granted. I miss the little critters I used to find as a kid growing up in the country.

  17. #dream: I see an #insect fluttering on the floor (an #alderfly or an #antlion or the thing at the end of #TwinPeaksReturn Episode 8). I reach out for it, and it starts to emit light from a #bioluminescent organ on top of its head. Its feathery #antennae cast shadows that look like a detailed (and annotated) pen-and-ink #drawing of the insect's own head. I get my phone to take a photo, but by then it's stopped emitting any light, and it's become a small spaniel which starts barking at me.
