    Acer, did you get any sores... I mean bites... I mean, did the bugs bother you?

    Nah, I'm not sore, but somebody may or may not have been!
    Seriously though, those Ramps on Saturday seemed to keep them away for most of the afternoon.

    It's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

    Formerly known as Acercanto, my trail name is MacGuyver to some, and Pucker Factor to others.

    It's not procrastinating, its proactively delaying the implementation of the energy-intensive phase of the project until the enthusiasm factor is at its maximum effectiveness. - Randy Glasbergen

    Did anyone happen to find some tarp stakes with no tangle line and figure 9's on them? ( 8 of them) I either left them at the campground or lost them in my gear, not 100 percent sure yet. I'll dig through everything this weekend and know for sure by Sunday.

    Yeah I did get close a couple of times!

    I kept putting hand sanitizer on the bites and they went away quick!

    Wonderful! Immediately dehydrate them with alcohol (wipes or hand sanitizer)... good trick!

    Sad to say my boy got poison ivy on his arm and face. Unfortunately he didn't listen about being careful and paid the price.
    Bet ya he wont be careless again though.

    That's too bad, Carlos! Poor Eddie... tell him we're counting on him to be able to identify the three leafed vine for us next time.

    I was fortunate enough to avoid getting poison ivy for 48 years, then I got it on my arms when eradicating intruders from my backyard.

    No one in my family will forget the time my brother had to squat in the woods, but had no TP... so he used the leaves that were at hand!
