Yes I went through colorado last year on a greyhound bus, beautiful, the air was so easy to breathe and I just "felt" better, here i seem to have a lot of headaches down at sea level. My friend said that was just oxygen starvation in the mile high city - hehe. Silverton was a nice little place - I am very tempted to spend a few months living there this summer to get a vacation from these noseeums - they bite me and I swell up like your sister - I don't even want to go outside here in the summers anymore. They could fix this with more spraying and I have talked to the local city officials who deal in mosquito control - but the money is just not there I guess.

I don't think this is as bad a problem over at clearwater beach - could you comment? Being off on that little island with concrete everywhere probably does not give the bugs a place to breed and grow - I am going to spend a few days out there soon and if I can find a refuge from the biting bugs there I might get out some more - if not I am going to have to leave florida until summer is over and the bugs are dead.

Before air conditioning, people in Florida tended to be skinnier.

Everytime I go back in the summer, I lose about 3 pounds the first week.

(Question : How smart can this guy be, going to Florida in the summer ?)

Southern California people are skinnier than Bay Area people.

Young people in Florida tend to be skinny.

That newspaper trick might come in useful.
