Next stop, the Great Horned Owls. I forgot to spray myself. After the first mosquito showed up, I should have turned around and went back to the Jeep and sprayed. Stupid me kept going. In the past I've only sprayed my hat and never got bit. By the time I got to the owls, both arms and legs were covered with skeeters. I think I wiped out about a thousand of them but not after I got multiple bites. Funny thing, when I got back to the Jeep only two itched. The rest of the bites were time released!! After sundown, I started feeling about 3 or 4 more itchy spots. The next morning there were more. This morning, my left arm was covered in bumps and itched. Think I finally got the itch under control with lots of hydrocortisone!
