Happy Sunday - May the Light of Christ shine in your lives.

June 29, 2025; Darkness is covering the earth, but you must not let it swallow you up. Remember that God is the light and in Christ is no darkness at all. So, you must make every effort to leave the darkness behind and be one with the Lord. Find the light, move into the light, and stay in light. Isaiah 60:2 For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and deep darkness the people; but the Lord will arise over you, and His glory will be seen upon you.

For all of you fellow outdoors-people, what do you do to combat gnats? I just got back from an inshore fishing trip and the gnats were bad. I pull a buff up over my nose but they still find a way down in there and up my nose. I don’t really want to go full head net because it messes with my ability to see subtle things on the surface of the water, but I had an infection in my throat several years back from a gnat and am now dealing with a sinus infection from one that got stuck up in my nose. Those bast#rds won't leave me alone and evidently my body reacts poorly to them. I need a better game plan before I head out for the next trip.

Worth a try.
Saw everything from sprays to sonic deterrence devices for gnats.
Good luck 👍

Do you have a boat? Only an issue near land for me. I know Disney World sprays for them, relentlessly. You could research that.

No. I use a kayak when the trip allows, otherwise I'm on a dock or doing some wading. Even in the kayak, I'm usually within 100 yards of the shoreline. I'm out there in June and September, so the best redfish activity is usually up on the flats and along grassy flooded shorelines.

Face into the wind. Don't wear cologne or deodorant with an odor. Bring a bunch of citronella.

Try getting a fabric softener sheet, like bounce. Put it inside your hat. You can also rub it on your hat and maybe even try to rub it on yourself. I think the other thing you can do is tie a couple of them together around your neck like a necklace.

We just booked our first family cruise. Sailing on RC star of the seas in October.

I am going to miss the Tennessee at Alabama game. Ugh.

Anyone have any tips and tricks for things to do on the ship or excursions???
