No joke about Lyme disease. My father is battling it now and he had to walk with a cane for a while, bit back in July.
Ditto about New England outside of Boston. Portland is a scaled down Boston, Portsmouth plus Seacoast down into Newbury(port), Brattleboro, Burlington and of course Providence. So many others too.
