Trouble in Never-neverland

On TWN channel 19 SHAW, a reporter for The Weather Network in Calgary reported today that camping and parks generate in excess of $380 000 000.00 (yes! three-hundred-and-eighty million CAD) in revenue annually for the province of Alberta (Canada).

One has to wonder if this is a contributing factor to the 🐒official position🐒 that it is highly unlikely to contract Lyme in the province, that there are no borellia carrying ticks here!

Did you know: all ticks know that they are not welcome in AB!

Right before that tick-carrying 🐃deer, 🐶dog, and 🐦bird crosses the BC / AB border, the tinyticks fling their little bodies right off of their dinner-ride, and disappear into 🌠Never-Neverland.

It's almost camping-time. Tick-tick-tick.

Beware of ticks this summer.
