    @Dora - That’s not a wet suit - that’s a deep-sea diving rig. What’s missing are the air hose and safety line.

    @InkyVoid - Yep IF he’s getting filtered, compressed air or other breathing mix… if he’s just using a fan to draw air… not so much.

    OTOH, it IS funny…

    treBscrawkcaB - They could be out in the country, and he’s just mowing the grass up by the house, where they don’t want the cattle to graze (& fertilize). We’ve got ticks here in KS, but they don’t seem to live in grass which is kept short - the longer prairie grass though can have a bunch!

    Ticks Suck!

    I don’t want to get any of that Lime Disease or Rocky Mountain Oyster Fever.

    Grass ticks are the larval stage of regular ticks and are called that because they’re usually found in grass.
