mosquitos
i remember just getting swarmed by mosquitos when i was a kid growing up in pennsylvania. they were everywhere. we always had mosquito bites. i noticed this trip i didn't even see a mosquito. where have they all gone? or am i suddenly this year too old and stringy? the kids didn't get any bites either. did they spray? is it the weather? is it global warming? hmmm... well, don't miss em. though it might bode ill for the food chain.
