'tite picote

'tite picote (tea-pea-cot) is chicken pox.  I had 'tite picote when I was a kid and it was horrible.  I noticed something strange when we were hanging out at the camp at Miller's Lake.  I think, if I remember right, I was playing badminton and went inside for something, noticed something and then Mouman told me the bad news.  Mom and Dad knew the word for small pox, picote, and I guess they had some of that way back.  But there is no word for truck or love bug because they didn't have any of that.
