PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • July 4, 2020
Because we never go anywhere or do anything, my wife and I find it difficult to believe that millions of Americans are eager to get back to their local pub, church, beach and restaurants. A Facebook friend complained about not being able to get out and about. When I mentioned that these virus-plague things only run for a year or so, he said, “Virus? I ain’t scairt of no virus. It’s the damn ticks.” As careful as I am, ticks got me twice so far this summer, and the pharmacist told me to stay out of the sun while on Lyme disease medication. ~ The humble Farmer
