Lyme tick is out and in force

This is the tick that carries the Lyme bacteria. You should ALWAYS wear long pants and socks, and use bug repellant when walking in tall grass or in the woods. I know, bug repellants might not be "good" for you, but I assure you that the risk they confer is a great deal less than the risk of getting Lyme disease, arthritic or neurological. So go outside and have fun, just take certain precautions because Lyme is everywhere...
