We've been getting ate alive sitting outside on the backporch this summer so today I bought some Citronella candles & holders for the liquid I have. Had to test them all out tonight of course. So Chris & I enjoyed some time sitting on the backporch w/ only one mosquito spotted. He went inside & I decided to enjoy the cooler temps & read a little bit. He came back out a few minutes later & spotted this rainbow off to the south. We'd been hearing thunder all around us but no rain for us as of yet.

While I am up on the ladder taking this picture I had a
Stealth Bomber Bat-Bird small tiny bird glide over the top of the pool RIGHT AT ME!! It might as well been a real Stealth Bomber because it scared me. I screamed & jumped down off the ladder. I did manage to scare the daylights outta the little bird too. Although it kept coming back & made a couple stunt circling fly bys to see if the coast was clear from the
maniac screaming lady. Chris asked me if I was just trying to break a leg when I climbed up to the 3rd ladder rung to try for a better rainbow picture.

He assured me that if the kids & I are in the pool it'll steer clear. I just hope & pray he knows what he's talking about. Stealth Bombing Bat-Birds aren't my idea of fun times, rainbow or not!!
That was your other mosquito repelant. They swoop close to water to get the mosquito's laying eggs. I'm sure you knew this though.lol. Bet it was a ballerina jump too.lol.
