Serenity Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 I didn't know you were only 13 Dan. You look much older for your age. Quote
JoshK Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 Coming back from the Teanaway yesterday we found a tick just kickin' it on the dash of the car. Wayne quickly dispatched of it and the three of us proceeded with the pseudo gay manshow tick inspection in the parking lot of the burger place outside of Cle Elum. Thankfully we found no more ticks, nor were we acosted by local rednecks. Be careful and check yourself out there! Quote
