Poison Ivy

    I had the first encounter of my life with Poison Ivy. It was not fun at all. My feet and ankles were covered in blisters and my arms and legs were covered in a red rash. Three weeks into it and the blisters are all healed and most of the rash is gone. I will be much more careful now when I am out camping. I never want to have to go through this again.

    Ouch, ya poison ivy is one of those things which are you never expecting even though it is fairly common. It is one of the reason I never wear ankle socks when I go hiking. I like to have at least some minimal protection from branches and shrubs that I might be walking through.
