There are so many tripping and other hazards in a nursery.<BR/><BR/>Whoever said gardening was a safe pastime never met me.

Bad as spider bites are, compared to Lyme disease, they're almost a picnic (unless, of course, it's a brown recluse or some other horror that's doing the biting).

Hopefully the doc is wrong. Wing Nut should know better than to challenge Curmudgeon's gossipy habits.
