    Not sure where it's at, but if this fella is on the front porch ... well, I'd say you find a new camping spot.

    What part?
    Currently, some parts of Colorado are under a fire ban. It sucks! Bring your field rations.
    Take your bug repellent and rain gear!

    Virtually the entire state is under a fire ban.

    But it's been raining the last three days and in the 60s -- and that's in Denver.

    BRING BUG SPRAY!

    When I went camping in Colorado, the bugs were so thick you pretty much had to bushwack through them. If you're near a river or any other type of water, you'll probably have this problem. One night when eating my dinner, I caught three mosquitoes on my fork between the bowl and my mouth. When I peed, I shot them down out of the air.

    I suggest investing in some 100 percent DEET. That's good stuff.
