It's a good thing I stayed indoors today. I heard that the gnats subsided over the weekend, but I received two reports today that they are still swarming around the area.
One friend said they were bad a mile up the hill from me and another friend, who was in McGaffey exercising his dogs, said they were "eating me alive."
I only went out to go to the post office, turn on the swamp cooler's water and to take the trash can out to the street. I think I came out unscathed.
Usually, gnat season lasts about 2-3 weeks here.
Also, it was at or near 90° outside today. That was an additional reason for staying indoors.
