They get me every now and then, burn like the dickens for a half-hour and then go away. I think they go after males because you guys are generally warmer than us women-folk LOL!Plickety Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02252583762292412093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433191378230739758.post-19087491083444357132009-07-25T09:29:31.222-08:002009-07-25T09:29:31.222-08:00I'm delighted to see you two have made it safe...I'm delighted to see you two have made it safely into Fairbanks. Talk about a huge sigh of relief!<br /><br />Watch out for those mosquito's, Mark - they seem to favor male blood. Mind you, since the female mosquito is the one that does the biting, I guess it makes sense.<br /><br />Our youngest daughter graduated from U of A - Fairbanks some years ago and we flew up for her graduation. (Boy, were our arms tired! Ba-dump!) We also got to meet her boyfriend (now her husband of 10 years) for the first time.<br /><br />Back to the mosquito's - they eat me alive. I seem to be especially sensitive to mosquito bites and exhibit fair size welts when I've been bitten. I used to suffer every summer in Fargo, ND when I lived there in the 1970's. They rival Alaskan mosquito's!<br /><br />Anyway, enjoy your respite - you've certainly earned it.<br />--<br /> Sam....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
