I thought about this yesterday as a Tornado rip'd through the KC area. An F4 Tornado is not quite the Cache I'd be wanting to find! :|

I have a GPS V also, and just pre-load them from MapSource or EasyGPS prior to going on a cache. I'm not sure there is a way to do that.

So, what is it that some people I hear of get hundredes of tick bites, and get nothing, yet I hear of others who get 1 or 2 then get Lymes? Is it truley a regional issue? Or just luck of the draw?

It's show'd my house about a half mile away!

We just started last week and have I think 10 finds so far. Just tonight I get home from work and I'm thinking "Gee, finally a full evening and home!" 30 minutes later we're hiking up 150 foot cliff/hill.

Ok, should I be more worried about Ticks? Or Worried about the mental stability of some of the fellow cachers? LOL

Tics, Ticks! ha ha, I get it! LOL Actually read through that thread on Ticks in the NorthEast.. Seems to be a bigger problem up there. On the sad side, everyone has their opinions on it! ha ha. I guess I can't let Ticks get in the way of a good Cache find...

We got Tics this weekend! Besides being a nuisance, has anybody had bigger problems? We did buy some spray with Deet! Is this effective? What's everyones scoop on this?
