The sun was out. The gnats were out. The Absorbine Jr was out.
A lovely 63°F here along the river, and no rain!

You buy that by the gallon??? Then you wouldn't be out
Actually, we should. All the stores run out during gnat season. The gnats never have been so bad here! Clouds o' gnats. Gnatsty.

I'd be happy to pick it up for you!
We lucked out, have several stashed bottles of AJ, but thanks for the offer, PF. They should go away in a couple weeks. Then mosquito season starts. Oh joy oh rapture. And we need a tick collar for people.

I swear the first chemist who develops a human version of Frontline or Advantix is gonna be a gazillionaire! I'm paranoid about the buggers since Himself had a bout of Lyme disease. Thankfully he was caught early and treated successfully.
49F and raining...one of these days I'll be able to start riding my bike to work. Walking is difficult, our water table is so high that it takes a long time for the puddles to absorb into the ground and they are more like 1 foot deep ponds. Luckily, still too cold for mosquitos
There are bracelets and pin on thingees to keep you from getting bitten. Here's two I found by Googling "bug repellent pin on":

Thanks for the suggestions Taxy, but it's not the mosquitoes that I have issues with (well I DO, but I have a repellent that works fine for those pests, plus I wear long pants and Himself's old white dress shirt over my T-shirt) it's ticks. They're tiny, unlike a 'squitter it's hard to tell you were bit, and the ones with Lyme disease can be serious trouble. When someone finds a way to immunize people or provide a decent repellent for ticks I'll be my usual worrying self.

Perfect by us too Bea! 
It can stay like this until a week before Christmas as far as I'm concerned.

Kylie, does it snow down there by you or are you close enough to the equator that you don't get any? Although from what I've inferred your more on the southern end of the continent, right?
The rain lasted 20 minutes! Now the birds are singing and the sun is trying to poke back out. This is the way the afternoons always used to be around here this time of year before we started having this awful drought. It is beautiful!

Yay!!! Glad you're all wet, Chopper!!!
We have a refreshing 67°F, and it's raining just enough that Beagle would not like a walk. We'll wait till after Big Bang and see what it's doing then.
