I was going to say the same, indicators point to a gradual deflation that will take time. There is not going to be a sudden bottoming out of the market like in 2008-2009.

Makes sense. Thanks!

Honestly not sure if I’ll be able to afford a house here. Lived here my entire life and have a decent job. May have to look elsewhere…

Jesus this sub really pays off

I can answer some of your questions, but not all:

-I don't use flea/tick stuff on my dog in the winter, but make sure to use it long enough in the fall to cover October/November warm snaps.

-I know people who swear by cedar oil for ticks.

-The surface of the trail (paved vs. gravel) doesn't matter for ticks. What matters is if there are plants that could brush you. Ticks will dangle on plants and reach out for a passing animal to hitch a ride on. So it's really the width of the trail and how grassy/shrubby it is that you need to think about.

-Doctors tend to be pretty good about early treatment, and I've known folks who have gotten early treatment before their test comes back positive or negative, just based on the appearance of the bite and an abundance of caution.

-It's worth noting that, generally speaking, if you catch the tick within the first 24 hours it is on your body it won't have had time to transmit lyme. I'm outside a lot and have lived in New England most of my life, and I mostly rely on doing good tick checks after I've been outside.

Damn... This person nailed it!

Definitely looking into them! Friend of mine was hospitalized last year for Lyme while hiking the Appalachian trail.

Go back, read the thread, and tell me you don’t seem like the cranky hater between the two of us…… I’ll wait.

All that freedom but no weed

And if this were not the case and ice sank then our lakes would eventually freeze solid. Pretty handy that it floats.

I personally aim to be buried in the cemetery right next door, under the “LIVE NUDE LADIES” sign.

Tick tubes and permethrin are effective.

Ticks get on you when you walk through tall grass or trees and brush against them. If you're not brushing against stuff, you're fine. If you are, check yourself frequently, and throughly when you get home.

Usually you don't have to worry about them in the winter, but that may be changing as we get warmer winters.

There are vaccines for Lyme disease in development right now. It's worth investigating.

Sorry to say but there’s no ‘crash’ happening here or for the majority of the US

To get the “This Chopper Flew Over Mt. Washington” bumper sticker

Water is extremely unusual in a number of ways! Due to the actual shape of a water molecule, it's also unusually polar, allowing it to dissolve just about everything we need to live. And it has one of the strongest surface tensions of common liquids.

And unlike most other substances, the frozen form is less dense than the liquid (as you noted), meaning ice floats! I don't know a single other substance that behaves that way.

The sound of a piece of shit 20 year old pickup truck with a trump won sticker and a let’s go Brandon flag riding up your ass on 93 even though you’re doing 85

Is the made up scenario in the room with us?

Can’t wait

Cardinal singing in the morning. I hear it every day in NH except during winter when they don't really sing. Although once I slammed a door at night and a cardinal must have woken up and belted out a few tunes in surprise, maybe he was dreaming about singing.

This is a really creative way for you to boost visibility for your craigslist ad. Good luck getting dudes to come shower at your house!
