I really used to like sitting outside in the dark with only the stars out but I got attacked by mosquitos so bad it became more pain the pleasure.
I think one thing I really want Mr. CSD to make for me is a screened in gazebo so I can sit outside like I used to but not be welted with mosquito bites when I go inside. I think one of the all screen ones where the roof is screen also, not solid.
When I lived in Florida we had a screened in porch, but you couldn't make it without one down there. They have insects that carry away small children if you're not careful.
We have phases here usually around all this rain. I tell you though the Fireflies have been insane too. My yard is just swarming with fireflies at dusk. My niece has been loving it.

Edited to add: It is time to step away from some of the nonsense threads on this forum (not in here). Some people are just too wrapped up in whatever their issue is they cannot see the truth or logic in what has been posted. I still wonder why I keep voluntarily reading and responding to those posts.
I think it is time to go and catch some bank robbers which is about as easy as catching 100 small ants running very quickly.
For me, reading them is voluntary, responding is a reflex. lol
Built in 1937. Dubbed the Zeppelin by its current owner, famed customizer Art Himsl, the Zeppelin started out its life as a prototype house car built by a mechanic at the Chris-Craft boat dealership in San Francisco. A San Francisco doctor who had high hopes of manufacturing a number of them commissioned the vehicle, but World War II material shortages effectively ended his quest.

Our Grandsons were trying to catch fireflies without squishing them, it really was not working out well for the fireflies at all....LOL
I told the boys that my Mother and other Adults would tell us to catch fireflies and bring them to her/them.
Once we did that they all took the glowy part off of the bugs and put them on us so they could see us kids glow in the dark.
I never realized how terrible that was until I matured.
Edited to add: I think it is time to go and snuggle in and quit terrorizing others on the forum for now.
I am hoping my part time gal gets medically cleared tomorrow so she can stop and visit for a bit.
She was going to stop on Thursday after her Doctor's appointment however, she discovered at her appointment what she thought was watery eyes from allergies was actually Pink Eye.
I read somewhere that a Purple Martin house is good for mosquitos as well and I believe the Amish use them.
I do know you can find plans online to build one, I have it saved somewhere but the plans were free.
Oh......I love that. Makes total sense that it was built by someone who dealt with 30's Chris-Crafts. Those boats are stunning. If I ever have the money.................

I'll look into it.
