When I woke up on Sunday morning, I discovered my legs were polka-dotted. Freakishly-diseased-looking bites all over my legs. What the heck? I remember getting bitten on Saturday evening while John and I were down at that creek taking photos. And I had climbed up the rocky embankment of the bridge to snap photos, and was sitting in and on the rocks.
I showed my diseased legs to my dad, this morning, and with a little humming and hawing over it, we decided that they must have been sand fleas. Sand fleas!?! The polka-dots were not bothersome yesterday, however today they are beginning to itch. a little more… a little more….
I look like I need to take a trip to CDC

Hey, I have the exact same thing on my legs and arms right now. They wern’t ichy at first but are driving me CRAZY now. I was dumb and laid on the beach with just a towel on the sand so i know how i got them. I was freaked out when i seen them a first because I thought I had the Chicken Pox again!! Thanks so much for sharing these pictures because it looks just like what I have all over my legs arms feet and hands just not quite as bad! Thanks again!!
