February 24, 10 o'clock at night and it's 63 degrees outside. Seems really wrong….

 

[Teegate]

Sure does.

5 minute walk thru neighborhood woods (open trail). Came home & had a tick on me!

I Like ticks and ticks like me

Oh, I don't want to hear this. As someone who is paralyzed and relies on a power wheelchair to travel through the woods it's a troubling thought. Well, time to load up on Sawyer's permethrin spray and lint rollers.

Here's something that's never happened to me before. Just returned from a walk in the woods and noticed a small tick on the space bar as I was typing, I guess it fell off my clothes. Before I could grab him, he vanished into the crack between the space bar and keyboard case. At least It's an external keyboard, but it's one of those thin Apple keyboards that I don't want to tear apart.

Aha!... as I was typing this he came out and I GOT HIM!

This begs the question; can an Apple keyboard contract lymes? And if so, would that be the start of a fruit salad?

 

[Boyd]

Well it looks like we're headed up into the mid 70's and it won't drop below freezing for the next week. Definitely time to get out the permethrin….

Treated the clothes today, off to visit a couple preserves tomorrow.
