June 28, 2008

The thunderstorms continued through the night and we woke up today to more crazy Minnesota weather.

The temperature plummeted to 60 degrees, down around 12 degrees from yesterday. The winds are blowing stronger today than yesterday, at 20+ mph, and straight out of the NW, thus the colder temps.

Despite the winds and the on-again, off-again rain, I set up our new Mosquito Magnet. We had purchased the Liberty Plus model of the Mosquito Magnet online about a week or so ago, and it arrived today. The mosquitos have been very thick this summer due to the high amount of rain we had in May and June.

Our neighbors, the Malays, have a Mosquito Magnet and swear by it, so we thought we'd give it a try. I did get it set up, and everything seems to be working OK. I hope it catches millions of mosquitos. Those little suckers are really annoying.

No fishing again today. I'm really starting to miss being out on the water. Maybe tomorrow.
