Do you realize how funny your post would have been had you omitted the word "golf"? :-)

Default Hey, I even thought it was funny as is! ;-)

Probably because it isn't stretching the truth all that much.

Default Those must be the famous "snow mosquitos", Culiseta Alaskaensis, biggest of'em all...

but not big enough to be the state insect, last I heard.

Default Have to go to Minn. for that....

Aedes Minnesotus, Latin for "The beast which carries away its lunch."

Occasionally, we did have swarms of the nasty critters. Small animals and children had to stay inside; citronella candles lit up the night; Calvin Kline introduced a limited run of CK-DEET; #12 shot was a popular shotgun load, and there were reports of temporary mosquito-eclipses. Beyond that, no biggie Cheers!
