Went fishing with a buddy in the South. We were dressed to protect ourselves, and I was so paranoid with ticks, I even secured the opening to my boots and pants. Definitely saw them crawling. A bunch of shirtless hicks came up to us and asked us where our fishing spot was so they can try. I told them about the ticks, and they just shrugged and repeated the question.
You can’t avoid ticks especially in the South, you just live with them. It’s silly to think you’re going to avoid entire activities because of them. Just examine yourself before you go to bed. I’ve pulled 10 ticks off me this year, definitely a record.

I think about that a lot.

Drag thinks that story probably happened in the northern hemisphere, not the south
