The missus got bit on the arm while we were CAMPING by a recluse.
She has an oval scar on her arm from the crater that opened up on the site of the bite.
One of the Girl Scout leaders got bitten by a brown recluse spider on the Encampment we went on weekend before last. She's got a NASTY looking area on her forehead where it bit her. It had been in her sleeping bag. I made sure to roll my bag up tight before I left the tent in the morning so no critters had a chance to move in while I was gone!
