And, I went to check out a dirt road towards the prairie hills. As soon as I got out of the truck, I was swarmed by mosquitoes who were desperate for blood. I didn&#8217;t spend much time outside, just enough to see if it would be sensible to go for a naturist hike. The definitive response was no! I didn&#8217;t have any bug spray to put on and a gazillion of the critters revelled in exposed human flesh. I could easily see that Dant\u00e9 should have included mosquitoes in one of his circles of hell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since I didn&#8217;t want to make the trip out to the  hills again, I settled for sunbathing on the deck overlooking our backyard.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-rounded\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"759\" src=\"https:\/\/rglongpre.ca\/naturism\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/20260704_150533aa-1024x759.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1959\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.349143947689516;width:347px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rglongpre.ca\/naturism\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/20260704_150533aa-1024x759.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rglongpre.ca\/naturism\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/20260704_150533aa-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rglongpre.ca\/naturism\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/20260704_150533aa-768x569.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rglongpre.ca\/naturism\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/20260704_150533aa-1536x1139.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/rglongpre.ca\/naturism\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/20260704_150533aa.jpg 1859w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Chilling on the deck<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lesson learned. Next time, bring mosquito repellent. Today, I am going to be on a country golf course with grandson number 2. My wife will be with his wife and other women as there is a baby on the way, due in September. I will become a great-grandparent for the second time. Grandson number 1 had given me a great-grandson last year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grandson number 3 will become a parent in December. I was lucky enough to marry all three of these grandsons. We are going to do nine holes only. The forecast is for +34 degrees. For those interested, that is equivalent to slightly more than 93 degrees Fahrenheit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just in case you are wondering, yes we have air conditioning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, Yesterday afternoon, I went to dispose of the tree branches as planned.
