Final Approach
Got home on Sunday from an excellent turkey hunt in South Dakota on my uncle's ranch - more fun than I've had in a long time. Somehow I crawled thru an infestation of ticks and found more than 20 on me over the next 8 hours or so. All were just crawling around but one, and I was yanking, picking, flicking, squirming, dancing and cussing before I realized that one little bugger had bitten. I checked the bite for remaining parts as good as I could in the field, but this morning I woke to a little swelling and discoloration at the bite mark.
Off to the doc to have it checked (yeah, I know - turn in my man card - I went in even before my wife told me to) ... so, they drew blood to test for Lyme's disease, prescribed 20 days of antibiotics and gave me a tetanus shot for good measure.
So now I wait for the lab results ...
