Note
Started mapping, and within about 15 minutes, the first raindrops of an encroaching thunderstorm arrived. Went back to my truck to wait out the storm and eyed the skies, which contained a second storm lined up to complete the devastation begun by the first storm, so I decided to follow the standard advice to "go west, young man" and headed for Happy Jack to run there. The second storm just skirted by up there so this revision of plans worked out well.
It was also good to see that the mosquitoes were back out. Apparently they had just been laying low during the unseasonably cool weather of the past few days. There's nothing like some voracious mosquitoes to help inject a little zip into the running stride. Though it's still far from a bad season. If you stop, there are usually no more than a dozen or so mosquitoes right there in that instant, and not entire clouds that blacken the sky, as happens in the truly bad years.
