Has the blackfly invasion begun?

I took the plastic storms off our back porch this afternoon, and I found the black flies are starting to come out. I do have a stream right behind my house (Alton Bay, above Sandy Point), so we are prime breeding grounds for black flies and those needlenosed friends that will follow shortly. Lochmere golf course (tilton) has few if any yet. Just get ready to slap, slap, slap!

Up on the mountain in Alton it is just about time to put the net hat on so one can finish the outside work. All one can hope for a is a nice stiff breeze coming across the lake. Just give it a couple of months and we will be all set. :rolleyes:
