Woodtick, Connecticut

My first school was called Frisbie Elementary and it was on Woodtick Road in Woodtick. Caryl once said she found the name disturbing and it was at that point I realised its significance. This is also the location of the funeral parlor (Woodtick Memorial) that prepared Steve, my mother, my father and my sister after their non-tick-related deaths. The area is no longer a village, rather an extension of development from Waterbury down the road, and Wolcott's zoning free-for-all. This sign is obviously not from Wolcott, but it extracted the memories from my brain. Lyme Disease is named for the town in Connecticut the disease was first discovered.
