My kid played American Legion baseball.
If you sat on the bench one of your duties was to shag foul balls. The opponent one day was weak and the stud catcher was being rested for a big game the following day.
It's New England and the balls are going into the woods. This catching prospect who was being recruited by every name college is running into the woods all day.
Of course, he ended up with Lyme disease. Destroyed him. He had no stamina after that. Couldn't play more than a couple innings at a stretch. He developed a nasty poker habit and is an apprentice plumber now.

Ken Scalir is god. His last call in to the show was a bright spot.
He is upbeat and fun. Note the difference?
Critical listening.
That people listen to the Show while hammered is concerning. The misguided notions they must leave with. As with wandering in the woods I suppose you gotta be on high alert.
We are about to get banhammered for enjoying this thread. I'm out for now.

I don't know how this forum will die, Ken Hordell.....
With the exception of Krypt we will be comparing sagging tribal tattoos and bragging about how many miles we get per charge on our mobility scooters
and talking about poker.
A gathering of the infirm
I guess we are already there.

Anyway, time to share the rest of the (real) story.
The reason these sores/bites/whatever were so inconvenient was because they showed up when I was in Jasper National Park in Alberta, Canada.
I took a 2-week trip to Kamloops (British Columbia), Mt. Robson, Jasper, Banff, Waterton, Montana, Yellowstone, and Salt Lake City.
I got absolutely hammered by mosquitoes on a trail near Mt. Robson on Monday night, and I also was bitten in the Fraser Valley (between Vancouver and Kamloops) the day before. The long, skinny mark appeared on Monday (though it started out looking like a bite), and the two raised ones appeared on Tuesday.
It was a pain in the ass finding a doctor in that area. Had to go to Canmore, which was 25 miles south of Banff, and I had to talk them into letting me make an appointment instead of being a "walk in" and waiting for hours. I coughed up $100 Canadian for the visit.
I will post a trip report later. Basically it was a 1-way road trip starting in Seattle (didn't stay there, just flew in and drove) and ending in Salt Lake.
I had two health concerns coming into the trip -- a cold, which I had for about a week, and back problems, which I had for about 3 weeks. The cold was mostly gone and was never an issue. The back problems were terrible for the first 3 days, but abruptly subsided right when the skin problems with my hand started.
I do think I discovered that I am allergic (at least to some degree) to mosquito bites. For most of my life, mosquito bites were itchy and annoying, but looked and felt normal. In the past 5 years or so, mosquito bites often became huge, red, and hot, which was a departure from how they used to be. On this trip, I had the worst reaction yet to them -- and not just the ones on my hand. I also had problematic bites on my legs, stomach, and arm. I'm not sure why this changed, but I heard that this can happen.
I did use mosquito repellent, but it was mostly a fail. Maybe I will try a different version of it next time.
