What happened to the mosquitoes?

This is weird... Last night, around dark, I was outside wandering around, and early this morning, as the sun was coming up, I was again outside. Despite these being prime mosquito times, I've yet to see a single mosquito! I wonder what's going on? More mosquitoes than I've ever seen in Colorado, and now no mosquitoes at all? This is a sure sign of global warming and global climate change, which will allow mosquitoes to take over the world.

Fortunately for me, my decades of living and fishing in southern Florida and the Everglades have given me the unique skills to deal with any mosquito situation. So while the rest of the world is itching and scratching, soaking in barrels of DEET, I alone will survive. After having fished in Flamingo, Florida, the world's mosquito capital and the only place in America where you will find voracious man-eating Crocodiles, I'm confident I will not only survive but thrive.

Daybreak at my property. I seldom get a pretty sunrise around here; the mountains are high enough to block the sun until it's about 8 o'clock, and by then it's too late for a decent sunrise.

 
 
 

A walk in the woods. But when I was younger, I considered walking up to the top of the big rock as a walk in the woods. But I’ve been up there many times, so I don’t have to do that anymore…. I still could, if I wanted to…… and there was a flight for life helicopter waiting at the top.

 
 
 
 

I'm standing behind my 100-yard target, which is a box full of dirt to stop the bullets. Normally, it would have a piece of paper stapled on the other side with a 1-inch square on it. And if I had a rifle that wouldn't put all of its bullets into that square, I would get rid of it.

If you zoom into my camper, you'll see another target box at 25 yards for pistol shooting, then my shooting bench, and my truck.
