The List

On the way home from the beach last weekend, after battling mosquitos with citronella candles, swatting horseflies, and making Silas pee on his leg where a jellyfish stung him, Ben made this list:

What makes DC different than California

-basement floods
-mosquitos
-mosquito diseases like West Nile
-bee and wasp stings
-ticks and Lyme disease
-camel crickets
-poison ivy
-jellyfish
-sea lice
-gnats
-horseflies
-centipede clusters
-humidity and heat rash
-power failures
-derechos
-tornadoes

He finished it with, "I"m going to pack up my babies and head west."
