Trapped by Mosquitos

It's impossible to step outside without swarms of these damn bugs landing on you. Another day or so and I might need to go for a blood transfusion. The locals say this is worse than normal but I wonder what normal is. Can't even go for our regular walks.  Bug spray will work for a few minutes but they always find that one spot you missed.
On the up side, the weather radio hasn't beeped a weather warning for the last 12 hours. There are a few thunderstorms around today so I expect the thing will sound off at some time during the day.
We just realized yesterday that the July 1st weekend is fast approaching. Decided we had better make some reservations for next week as long weekends out here are very busy. Combine that with the number of pipeline workers staying in all our favorite RV parks and spaces become very limited. Spent the whole morning calling everyplace between here and Alberta.
With the southern TCH still closed due to flood damage the options were nil in that direction. Finally found space in Saskatoon. We'll leave Brandon early Monday morning and head for there. It will make for a longer drive than I like but thats life. We will stay there until next Sunday and then head towards the Calgary area. Busy looking over the tour guides to find what can keep us occupied in Saskatoon over the 5 day period that we are there. Could be that the black rum consumption will increase after the third day.
All is well. Enjoying time with grandchildren (up to my four hour daily limit. Too much energy for the old guy to cope with) N is with them now and I'll pick her up later on today.
I've got my list of chores that have to be finished today so must get moving.
 Quote for the day

The hardest thing to learn in life is which bridge to cross and which to burn.
