As the journey continued North, the battle with the mosquitos got more intense. It was a fight that I can say I lost- hands down! As you can see by the size of the mosquitos, I wasn't prepared for this war. At one point, Dan was holding on for dear life while one of the native critters was trying to carry him off. It took all the effort I could muster up to fight them off long enough to get back in the car and high-tail it out of state as fast as we could. Being used to FL mosquitos, soaking myself with deet 50 usually repelled the insects for at least 30 minutes; spraying myself with the same solution while in MN attracted them as if it were a natural mating call. Needless to say, I don't have much to write about or fond memories of MN on this trip.
