My Dad's 85th birthday was June 3rd and to celebrate it we had a picnic for him at a park by the lake. As a surprise my brother in law rented a boat and we all went out for a long ride. We stopped at a little island where my husband got off and went into woods. When he came back he had some little ticks crawling on him which I knocked off. Guess one got on me because now I have Lyme Disease. I never saw the tick but I found the itchy tick bite and then the bullseye rash started and then the flu-like symptoms. I went to the doctor Friday and he said all indications are it's Lyme Disease and he started me on a 14 day course of antibiotics. He said that will cure it. I was thrilled and surprised it can be cured. I always thought you had it for life.

Anyway, here is my Dad feeding the ducks.
