06:50, 73F, foggy. mosquitoes are TERRIBLE! not that I'm surprised after all that rain.. roosters crowing. dogs hiding under the house. have to mow. that usually helps some.
upper 80's - lower 90's, partly cloudy. grass was dry enough to mow by noon. mowed all around the house. didn't seem to help. mosquitos ferocious. if you stand still for more than 2 seconds, they mob you. friends visited in the late afternoon to inspect the pup and have a cup of coffee. we fought the mosquitos on a brief walk around. got 3 eggs, one broken.
20:30, 80F. calm, overcast. mosquitos a torture.
got chores done before dark to avoid their peak time. crated lil pup in the mudporch which has screens.
no wonder most of the native americans in this area lived along the coast - got those sea breezes, probably built out on the water and their middens grew up around them.
