Down With Leeper
Sorry, Doris Leeper, we are done with you for a while. The last few walks at Doris Leeper park (one of our former faves) has been dropped from our rotation until winter. We were overlooking the tall grasses that started to grow in the center of the path, the possible homeless camp that seemed to be forming and whatever critters were digging holes all over. However, our LAST trip to Leeper will be our last for until we get a freeze around here (which could mean not until January 2020).
Here is the reason: bugs. Many many bugs. Swarming bugs. We are not even sure what kind of bugs they were. They seemed like a tiny moth. They definitely were not mosquitoes or flies. Who knows? They could have been termites in the pre-lose their wings phase. I kid you not, though, they were ALL OVER everything. Including us! And even Henry who tends to be oblivious to most things seemed downright annoyed. So, for now, Doris Leeper park is off the schedule.

I wouldn’t be going to that park either I hate bugs so many of them here in Florida the worse ones are the fire ants
Since you’ve lived there long enough that you’ve already gotten used to “normal” bugs, this definitely sounds like something to avoid!

I know y’all have plenty of fall back parks.
Pugs, not bugs!!
I’d be outta there too…I HATE bugs!!! Maybe it’s time for more car rides:)
Don’t blame you one bit. We have our share of bugs here in Texas but sometimes they can just drive you crazy. We have fire ants, too, but right now we’re having flies like crazy. Maybe cooler weather isn’t far away.
Chuckie’s comment is too cute!
I want placards and tee shirts made right away!!!
I agree-best to stay bug free as much as possible. The worst are roaches UGH!!! HATE!!! Stay calm and go to another park. Pug hugs from pastor sue & the Colorado 2
