Your weather sounds nice. We had a very nice, very mild winter this year with many nice days in Feb, but it looks like we may be gearing up for a HOT summer, considering how warm it is here already. Mosquitoes. Ugh! And this far south, I fear we could even end up with Zika here before it is over, since we are already home to the mosquito that carries it. Yep. I keep all manner of mosquito repellent on a baker's rack by the back door. In mid to late summer, I usually can't even go out to pick a cucumber w/o getting bitten, so I'm armed.


I have that rack too!! ( only mine is a recycled cupboard) Yard Guard...indoor fogger, cutters spray, cutters towelettes, the small wearable fan with the mosquito repellent, citronella candles, but nothing works as well as staying indoors with the latches bolted!
Don't squat with yer spurs on!

People try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved
