OK, good to here. Most of the savage warnings are coming from dirt dwellers....

so maybe not so bad out on the water. I had the screens on in the Lakes, and they were certainly needed. We picked up biting flies of some color out in the middle of Lake Ontario, 15 miles from land at least. And again in the middle of Lake Erie. There don't seem to be nearly as many spiders here as there were in the Lakes, so maybe fewer bugs?

- I can't recall ever seeing them(on the boat). I also don't see much reason to get my boat in before June in Maine.
