Also not worth a damn is all the tinctures they sell you to deal with the bites that result. I want a Mythbuster's episode on bug spray and remedies. After my week, the ONLY thing that made me not want to scratch myself into strips of bacon was toothpaste applied directly to the bites. I learned this AFTER figuring out that the crap they sell at Walgreens is probably a conspiracy, and was going to lead to a mental breakdown the way things were going.Feistesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03734217215697206526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-5269090816435707642010-07-16T21:09:33.972-04:002010-07-16T21:09:33.972-04:00Your vacation adventures are the best.
