The Second Time Around
Kansas is lovelier the second time around. Last year it was a low point of the ride. This year, pleasant if windy and flat. Green fields, nice sun, warm.
Nothing to say about the ride but camp is nice. I went for a walk down a mud road and watched three rabbits have a swell time not knowing I was standing there. Or maybe they didn’t care. Cool rabbits. I noticed some skeeters heading into the evening so I went to the office and bought some chemical laden lotion for keeping them away. I’m not a big fan of putting this stuff on my skin, but I was willing to live with it until I could find something better. Slatherd once, twice, three times and not one mosquito was detered. Oh, Reno! Clear and free of mozzies! Oh, how I dig thee!

I would not speak too soon, the city announced today that the mosquito treatment normally done in the city is being cut significantly. We shall see what the effect is.

Brother, count yourself lucky. In sunny FLA, the mosquitos are the size of pigeons. And they speak spanish.
Any time you want to stop by Wellington, let us know….

At least you can shoot pigeons with a shotgun.

I’d like to get down Florida way. Can I book a flight on one of those skeeters?
