I once got stung by a scorpion while deer hunting in the Chautauqua Hills in the dead of winter. 0 degrees and a foot of snow on the ground. F’er crawled up my shirt and stung me in the back. Wasn’t expecting that.I ran into one in near Decatur about ten years ago in mid December on a day that nearly hit 80. The day after it was a high of 35 degrees.
