First tick bite of the season

I went for a hike yesterday, covering 9.5 miles in 4 hours and 10 minutes, for a pace of about 2.3 mph. This is pretty good, considering that the weather was beastly: hot and humid. I did the Mattabesett-Lone Pine Trail loop. When I got home I discovered a deer tick attached to the back of my left calf. It was easily removed, probably got it before Lyme infection could occur.
