When Ticks Attack!



I think this is my 5th tick since we've been here. The sad thing is, I had just taken a shower and had to pull one out of my shoulder too! I can't believe I had two at the same time. My friends Abe, Rowe, and Crisitn are visiting and Abe let me know that you needed to use heat to make the tick release before you pulled it out. Hence the reason we used a match on my neck. It all worked out in the end.

New blog to come...maybe this weekend.

Hope you all are doing well. Sorry about the tick attack! Please let us know when you make changes on the Emmanuel website. Thanks and God bless!

Ah, I'm totally jealous! Not that you had 2 ticks. Not jealous about that. But very jealous that my friends are with you all at Emmanuel. Wish I could have tagged along as well.

We call that little thing a seed tick. As a forester, Ray often comes home with a dozen of those attached or crawling around. Never any fun, though.
