In my third attempt to get this typed out on my wife's lap tap;the previous two erased by the lap top's judgment of my writing ability, I wish to express my greetings and well wishes. My journals have been infrequent as of late due to a loss of internet in my home.But in these last few days we've been staying at our daughter and son-in-law's home in
Soldotna and I am trying to catch up on "Blue Bloods", the cop show. Finally a decent police show, a bit hard on the drinking, but the TV family of cops are three generations of Irish cops.

​Greetings Earthlings and the few Teddy Bears who stuffed Moose who read along:    What a fantastic day it is, here in Seward and once again I'm on the library computer.  Out in Moose Pass we had an early rain and then it cleared off to provide a warming day and BUGS.  Yes, August in bugs month here in Moose Pass.  In the house, the car, on the dogs & cats- who become buses to bring an assortment into the home. The dogs can open the front door, so this allows additional bugs to enter. Oh what fun as we strike, smash, kick and stomp our friends. Outside its okay, we leave them alone mostly, but inside, they've received a death sentence. Mona hates the 8-legged none nondescript spiders. I hate mostly mosquitoes. This comes from having malaria, I feel every one of these flying dragons is carrying another malaria virus and I'm out to protect my wife from having to catch this.  But they say no malaria, but then add possibility of West Nile Virus. But the spider bites leave wounds that resemble moon craters or comet strikes.  Must be the stuff in the air.

Have you read about the blob off the west coast?
