I met Ben after work for roughly 3 hours of brush clearing at Bavington. We work on the end of the main loop from the Haul road parking area. As we walked in we saw where someone had used a string trimmer to cut the grass. On the Sunday all trails ride Biber said they saw someone with two dogs cutting the grass. We'd like to thank that person.
We still walked threw some tall grass to get where we were going and I would stop and flick the ticks off every once in a while, eeew.
We got a lot of work done. Ben was using the brush cutter and I was cleaning up and using the big pruners. We cleared a huge section of trail. I think the next project is to clear the brush on the figure 8 on the old side. Anyone want to help?
I got home, scarfed some food and played stick with the dogs. I came in and decided to strip down in the garage. I immediately noticed a tick attached to my inner thigh about half way up. I twisted around and saw one on my back. A little tweezer work and some help from Lora and they both came off. I'm amazed that they had already latched on to me. How did the one get threw my jeans? I did a very thorough check and got a shower. Something tells me I'm going to have an itchy night. :-(
