Darn Mum, I want to stay far far away from your place!

I am from a small town in southern Indiana, anybody close?

[mudweiser]

Indiana is a 4h drive for yours truly ;)

I wanna come too Alty!!
Wait, does it ever get warm there?? I'm not a fan of all that snow n crap.

I'm a southern girl so I need sunshine...

I'm about 10 minutes from Raleigh the capital city of North Carolina... about a stone's throw from Chapel Hill... you've heard of us right?? NCAA Champs... :rolleyes:

Summers here are very nice, very warm, actually hot! Contrary to popular belief, we don't live in igloos and there are no polar bears where I live in Canada. Sneezy was so disappointed when he heard that. :p

I've never met an Eskimo and never seen a penguin in the wild. I don't have a dog sled or a team of dogs to pull it (actually, I'm half way there, 3 dogs, only need 3 more and I could get a sled :eek:)

I don't say eh, or aboot, and I don't know anyone named Nanook. I've never had frost bite and I've never had seal meat. :p

Hee, hee, just some common misconceptions about Canada. Yes, there are Canadian provinces that offer all of the above and more, but not Alberta. We're actually one of the warmest Canadian province.

Oh, and we don't speak french here!

So come on down NM, the trailer sleeps 6! :D

A beer or 4 dear, it's Canada, we have good beer. :)

We may allow the boys to join us, after they're done their chores! ;)

You don't have good beer my dear you have the BEST beer :D

4 hours isn't too bad, I might have to take my next vacation your way. Lol

I think my next vacation might be a plane trips worth.

[Alty]

You don't have good beer my dear you have the BEST beer :D

It is pretty darn good, but not the best. The best beer is in Germany. :D

Now now, throwing out tick granules for guests is a very welcoming gesture!! If you don't want guests to stay around, you don't mow the yard, let the ticks get "real thick", borrow a few of the neighbors hound dogs to keep on the porch (to add to the tick population). Nothing will get rid of an unwanted guest faster than having 200-300 seed ticks crawling up their leg en masse. Picture a small, bloodthirsty army that won't come off your body unless you have a good roll of duct tape handy!

Tick granules also kill chiggers. Whole other conversation.

Thats a little more frightening than the chispider, huh?

I didn't realize ticks were such a problem. Please throw extra tick granules just for me.

The chispider/tarantula is highly scary to me, but I am arachnophobic.

I don't say eh, or aboot

But... but eh and aboot make me laugh :(

I am the closest, probably. ;)

[Alty]

I can throw them into conversation here, but those words will never be uttered verbally. Can't do it, just can't! ;)

[adam_89]

Yea, you probably are pretty close. I think Stringer is close to me too, and you two are probably pretty close to each other.

[Justwantfair]

but...but eh and aboot make me laugh :(

Bear, when is your trip to the States planned?

[kctiger]

I'm pretty sure KC would pitch his own tent if he were to sleep with Stringer..

Sarah

Hmmm... I am speechless... the answer to your question is a resounding NO... :eek::mad:

[mum45]

Darn Mum, I want to stay far far away from your place!

LOL, hey I have had those Brown County Indiana ticks on me, and I prefer an Arkansas tick any day... Do you guys fertilize them or something?

In all seriousness, lived in Anderson, IN for 6 yrs, and camped a lot in Brown County. Beautiful there, almost like home. 'Cept for those HUGE ticks y'all grow, no amount of duct tape would help in THAT situation.

Don't stay away, as in my first post, yew all are funny, and I'll put out the tick granules if you ever visit!

Exaggeration and story tellin' is a true "Southern Art Form", in my opinion. Take plain truth, then add generous spice for flavor. Gently fold in a generous amount of humor. Then add sprinklings from life lessons learned to decorate. Serve up with love and good ol' sweet tea.

And if you are in Brown County any given weekend, look up my in-laws, they are there. Fighting the big 'ol ticks.

[HistorianChick]

Another Tampa Bay resident....:)

Yay for Tampa Bay! :) Gorgeous out there, isn't it?

[Alty]

Hmmm....I am speechless...the answer to your question is a resounding NO...:eek::mad:

Aww, it's okay KC, you can sleep indoors. I'll protect you from Stringer.

Now, I can't promise that Justy or NM won't get their hands on you, but somehow I think you'd be okay with that. :D

I am out in that area every once in awhile. I don't reckon I have seen any of those ticks out there. It's a pretty close drive from here. I am in Lawrence county right next to Monroe County, which is right next to Brown.

We do get some pretty big ticks around here every once in awhile. A couple of summers ago, I had to get out the tweezers and pluck them off my dog and burn them. I think I counted about 20 or so, but She didn't get them that much after but did die at the end of that summer. :(

[albear]

Bear, when is your trip to the States planned?

Sometime within my life span :D
