"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

It got my appetitegoing for some "alpine fir" stuff here in Arizona.
When you say "lots of ticks," are you talking about wood ticks
or those really small suckers that suck??
When I lived in northern Utah, I used to be a "tick magnet!"

TicksLarry - They are Rocky Mountain wood ticks - the little reddish leathery ones. We were in prime sheep terrain and we had them all over. We thought we were okay once we got out of the trees and on the rocky ridge but still had to kill some in the parking lot and at home. I had to carefully go through all my clothes and gear in my garage before my wife would even let me in the house.
Terrible little things.
