As I descend this weekend into the heart of darkness, it occurs to me that I might not return. Poachers, bandits and wild animals. Quicksand and avalanches. Lost tribes. Anything can happen. So, if you don’t hear from me in a few days, please light a candle for me and say a prayer for world peace.

On the serious side, we saw a lot of deer ticks this summer. Forget monsters, the tiniest predators can hurt the most. And beware of skunks!
Thanks Carol 🙂 We’ll be definitely on the lookout.
Mitzi always likes my posts – thanks Mitzi! Mitzi never comments. Mitzi is a Mitz-tery 🙂
Is that you in the picture, John?
Heh, that’s not me, but we wear the same loincloth.
