Spring

SPRING!
Its spring in New England and along with spring comes mud, ticks, flies, and worst of all the
occasional snow flurries that (mostly happen in April or May as soon as it gets warm and you get excited for spring)  make you realize you need a vacation! And this is how to survive spring in New England.

TIP #1 NEVER get excited as soon as you see bare ground. I know after a VERY long winter it's easy to get caught up in the moment when you see the first bud  and the first bare spot on the ground, but try not to get caught up in the excitement because  it is very likely that next week you will get 2 inches of snow and then that's when you decide you need to take a vacation STAT

TIP#2 ALWAYS keep bug spray on you. this is essential if you want to survive bug season. In certain spots the black flies can be so bad it has a dark look out side and as soon as you step outside you get ten bugs in your mouth and at least one in your eye.  For best results  use at least 2 different kinds of bug spray ( just in case one is not effective) and the best way to keep bugs out of your eyes, and mouth is buying a head net.

TIP#3 Ticks can be very bad in bad in New England for the best way to prevent tics is to tuck your pants into your long socks to prevent ticks from getting onto your skin and then once you get inside you can do a quick tick check and pat down to try to find any ticks before they latch on and start sucking.  You can also buy tick repellent to spray around  your ankles if you feel its necessary.

Travel! Here are some tips and tricks for traveling. google images ALWAYS double check which gate you have When packing your carry on put all of your electronics in one pocket in the front of your bag this way you are not rummaging through your bag and holding up the line. (also this might happen) and you ran out of space in your suitcase and so you had to pack some of your clothes in your carry on and you reach into your bag and you pull out your computer but along with it comes your underwear in front of everybody at security! So that is why you keep all the things you need to take out in one pocket of your bag at TSA. Keep all your important paper work such as your plane ticket in your purse all together this way you can just whip out your passport and plane ticket whenever you need it. NEVER!  ever leave your bag  untended  especially if it has your  personal   information  in it.
