I finished the greenhhouse. See photos below. It wasn't without incident, as I felt something crawling up my leg, beneath my jeans, and removed a tick. Then I saw one . . . TWO more crawling up my jeans. When I was done putting on the greenhouse cover and laying out the rocks and cardboard, I thought I felt something on the back of my head. I went inside and my wife checked. Sure enough, there was another one. I threw my clothes in the washer, hopped in the shower and turned the water on hot. I didn't see any more go down the drain but, when I was through, I put on shorts and a tee shirt and my wife checked all the places I hadn't. No more.
`
I sat down in "my" chair and began assembling the photos I'd taken. I felt something on my foot and, @#$%! Another one. How did it get there? I don't know. Maybe from the dog. But that made FIVE. Good thing they're dog ticks (the big kind.) I'm apparently able to feel them before they latch on.
`
Note - my grass isn't even deep. I guess I need to start spraying myself down with DEET or permethrin before going into the yard.
