I have heard good things about Thermacell in the boat but I haven't tried it yet myself.

It snowed south of me today. The wind has blown and I only wish we could see a 75 degree day. I wore a coat over my coveralls at work with a stocking cap. Ron

I'll have to be careful about that Devil. Let's see. In the boat on the Gulf Coast I'll be at sea level - so that should be OK. Now the elevation at the hunting lease is something like 340 feet. Add another 16 feet for the stand = 356 ft. Yep, still OK.

I was thinking it would take a lot of rain for you to be at that elevation.

I had an office job for a few years, but am now working outside. I'm taking the Arkansas heat worse than I used to. I thought I was going to melt today.

Well it is finally hot here... it is in the 80's. The sun is shining, no bugs, and a slight breeze. Couldn't be a more perfect summer day.
