Got a Fly, Oasis State Park, Portales NM, November 1, 2011
Got a fly
In a swatting frenzy before I flew out of Oasis this morning I broke my hi-zoot designer swatter with the big comfort grip handle and light plastic head.
Met a guy here at Sumner Lake who opened his door (at another park) and in came 145 flies. Wish I had only a 145 fly problem...
[Later] I got the herd pretty well under control with a new cheap, strong, WallyWorld flyswatter in concert with some good old-fashioned fly paper.
