“This is S. Tennessee. Everything here bites or stings.”
I was raised in Middle Tennessee and moved to Colorado. I tried to explain to the people here about Ticks, Chiggers, Fleas, Copperheads, Cottonmouths, etc.. but they just don’t get it. The stupid thing is they think I’m a Redneck and I tell them ‘you ain’t met any Rednecks have you?’.
It’s not completely hopeless. There are places in Colorado where rattlesnakes live . . . :-))
