But in Norway, last summer it was so hot, and dry for such along period, hopefully most of the ticks, and the brown snails died. In Norway, the summer of 2018 was hot between 25-32 C from the middle of May until beginning of September, and it was almost no rain in that period. Sorry for all the berrie, and mushroom pickers.

Squared grill, S2 Model, 1370 produced, British Ford 4 cylinder motors used. 88"inch wheelbase, 1655 lbs, 132" length overall. Colin Chapman design, most of the bodies were "alloy", not steel, after 1970, they started using fiberglass on the Mark IV cars. Stepped running boards on the entries also for the earlier series S3 cars.

I’m assuming this is THE famous ambulance we know and love . No idea how much work you had put into it. Can you remember if you found a tick on you? I know you and Melissa said you don’t have them where you live but you & Stephen found out the hard way that you do have mean wasps on your new property. It would be dreamy if our family property didn’t have ticks or wasps! 80% woods in 278 acres…..lets just say I’ve lost count of how many ticks I have encountered. We go through a lot of wasp / hornet killer every year as apparently our Missouri hot and humid summers make them cranky & just plain mean.
