Rosie, do the 17-year cicadas come that far north? I know we're talking about them down here already. It's actually mildly cool that a bug has such a strange lifespan.

Why are they called 17-year cicadas again?

I believe so. We have a couple types of cicadas...I would think we've got the 17 year types.

In any case, cicadas are LOUD!
