And we have all of the above and then some... every friggin creature and insect and even some you guys don't.
Theres a reason people could not give land away here at one time.
Throw all that in a blender with 100 degree's of 98% humidity.
And you'll know why it was once just called "swamp".

People always say (notherners) they are jealous in the winter of Florida...
Summer makes up for it.
The good thing is ... Water.
Water everywhere.
Wanna cool off... stay inside... or get in water.
But... through a few months... July August September... the water is like hot bath tub as well... so cool down is not so quick.

I just hate it when the shorts feel like a wet tea bag. You can have it, we have the humid weather in the summer but it's short lived.

pepperj, I guess I had heard enough of the news report to get it wrong. No new strain, I guess they said ticks were showing up earlier.
" [FONT="]Since the late 1990s, the number of counties in the northeastern United States that are considered high-risk for Lyme disease has increased by more than 320%,"[/FONT]said study author Rebecca Eisen[FONT="]. "The tick is now established in areas where it was absent 20 years ago."[/FONT]

This was from a March 9th, 2018 article. Sorry, I jumped to conclusions. [/FONT]

As a teen my buds and I would take canoes down the Chassahowitzka River...
One year we were eaten alive trying to out paddle them.
We later wrote a drunken poem entitled...
"Deer Fly's My Eyes Cried"
Heh.
Bloody welts from head to toe.

Within seconds of being cool... you step out into sun and can begin to perspire on a good one.
One reason I love to detect mornings...
By 10 it will already be brutal.
Even the ladies who ALWAYS are on the beach and look like an old baseball glove... Are gone. heh

I have seen it many times.. tourist comes down.. they love it... off with all their clothes... on the beach in only shorts dripping sweat.
I see them later on the next day... sick as a dog and red as a lobster.

AARC,
Being in the North there are times I curse our winters especially as I get older. As you know there are some downsides to living in Southern climes wicked hurricanes and various critters that can do some serious harm. An uncle of my wife who used to winter in Florida was cleaning out the rain gutters on his mobile home and managed to get bit by a venomous snake that was sunning there and ended up in the hospital.
When vacationing in Barbados my brother who joined me on one of my trips got home a ended up with a sore of some sort on his chest he had it checked out at the tropical disease unit of one of our hospitals and turned out some bug or other had laid eggs in an open wound he had.....not fun for sure.
Regards + HH
