Do you remember the one Dad took off Jolene's head when she was pretty little? It was hugely engorged with blood – about the size of a pea and its "skin" was stretched really tight. I will never forget it... probably because it was so disgusting!
Wow. Blast from the past! I have not seen one of these bad boys since we were young and growing up on the mountain. our dog roamed about and got ticks. If we did not find them, they swelled up like this. We'd get them off and stomp them...gross.
