I believe it. I’ve never cruised in the Carolina’s but done my fair share around I-10 in North Florida and you ain’t kiddin. I can remember using that 100% deet like hand lotion and the skeeters down there just laughin at it 😂. Head net is an absolute requirement down there.

Hard to beat South Florida for bugs… when I was a kid, my dad and I tried to fish the canal along US27 near the Everglades and west of Ft Lauderdale on an overcast, drizzly afternoon…. we only lasted outside the car about five minutes…. mosquitoes were so thick they were flying in your ears and up your nose…. I’d cast a lure and only get one or two turns of the reel before having to use my hand to chase the mosquitoes off my face and head…. We put our rods back in the trunk and jumped in the car…. then spent the next 20+ minutes killing the mosquitoes that had followed us into the car….

Two more reasons for me to hate Florida.

I grew up in S FL and “escaped” to N GA about 30 years ago…. no desire to ever return on a permanent basis….

Same goes for the “love bugs” that seemed to suddenly appear from nowhere in the early 70s around north/central Florida…. they were so thick in May that you could barely see out of the windshield after 5-10 miles on the Interstate….

Hard to get off the truck too. Nasty little things.

The entire frontal area of my car would be plastered with lovebug guts and residue…. and if left for more than a day or so, would etch the paint and harden like drywall mud…. after passing through an area of those things I’d try to exit the Interstate and find a do-it-yourself car wash (pressure wash) to clean the front of the car and windshield…


There's nothing better than getting paid to look out the window....

Nah, it’s Ghost Pipe. Or Indian Pipe. No hallucinogenic properties but the natives believed it held medicinal properties. It’s a wildflower with no chlorophyll that only grows above ground for a week out of the year. Cool stuff.
