Tick Deathwatch

Beware -- the ticks are back.

After several hours of cutting, clearing, and picking up trash on Saturday morning, my dog and I came home with three ticks. In a rare twist of fate, I had none for a change.

So, as a friendly reminder, you may want to spray some Off! around your ankles and on your shoes to help keep those damn ticks away. I found this was a pretty good way to protect myself last year.
