With the good moisture and lush vegetation (maybe not to some, but it is to us!) comes the dreaded gnats. They’ve been out for a month or more, of course, but the hordes seem even more horrid and obnoxious since the rains. Mosquitoes, too, if you can believe it.
It’s hot and dry again, and we’re ready for the next teaser of rain to show up in the forecast.
As they do with everything else, the mustangs – like Buckeye – take the bugs in stride … but I think it has to make them at least a little bit crazy. It makes this human a lot crazy.

Isn’t that the truth, TJ! Moisture = gnats and mosquitos. Long sleeves and long pants and face nets are in order. Buckeye looks pretty calm in the midst of all those buzzers; he is one chill mustang!
I learned a long time ago that you really can’t wear shorts out here, no matter the level of the mercury. And head nets are not only the fashion of choice … but necessity!
