One of the benefits of living in Oregon is very little standing water, hence very few mosquitoes. Maybe if you get around a high mountain lake in the summer you'll get eaten but very few any where else in the state. Plenty of water out here, it's just always moving pretty fast. To give you an idea, this is the river that runs by my house. Granted not all are this nasty with white water [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CmugTtJItA]YouTube - Miracle Mile June 6 2009 0001[/ame]
