My house. It's not at half mast, there is a telephone pole next to it.
Happy 4th every one.

Old Glory been flying in front of the house for a while. May we have another GOOD 244 yrs! Sometimes calamine lotion or something that came in a green bottle and smelled like turpentine worked better. For the bites. Running fast helped keep them off.

Campho-Phenique may be what you're thinking of Popper, I have had the same bottle for 40 years and a little dab does help on chigger bites.

Don’t think Campho-Phenique liquid is still made.
Gonna sound odd but a tiny dab of BenGay, or similar product, works well. Do NOT use it on well scratched and raw bites. Do NOT use it on “sensitive” areas.

Tht is all I use for big bites these days. Like Campho-Phenique it is a counter irritant and quite effective.

There was small arms fire all during the day which is normal for any day. We had a storm come through right at dark. Lots of thunder and lightning. As soon as the sky cleared, the neighbors started in. Small fireworks lead to small arms fire lead to commercial fireworks. The finale was 20lbs of tannerite.

Of course this is subject to happening New Years and birthdays. Love being and living in America.

We still can get Campho-Phenique Liquid ( little green bottle) at some of our older drug stores
Stuff is the best! It is one of the best ways to get a tick to pull out and drop off with out any work on your part except a dab od it on your finger and then onto the tick.....sit back and watch him pack up and leave
