Do I need guinea hens or a new hubby?

I'm kidding, but apparently the Fey do not care much for Ken.

We heard rumor that the survey folks had put in more flags, so Ken I went out last evening to see what had been done.

Not much.

But to make matters worse, it was very, very hot down in the bottom of the swale, my ground water spring appeared to be dried up and Ken found a giant nest of ticks!

We were picking ticks off of him all evening and he finally found one on his backside in the middle of the night. Poor guy.

But now he doesn't want to go back in the woods at all!

Darn.
