And It Happened...

My stomach, arms, neck and face are covered in Poison Ivy! Monday night I noticed a couple of spots on my arms and they were itching like crazy. I did everything in my will power not to scratch them. Tuesday morning I lathered on the steroid cream and went to work. As the day went on, it spread to my face. I mean right by my nose and in the corner of my eye. I have a few bumps on my forehead and down my neck too. By the end of the night, my stomach was covered and itching like crazy too. So. I decided to take off today and get a steroid shot. I am hoping that it will act quickly and clear this shit up! As of right now, I am NOT looking forward to running 13.1 miles Sunday morning with Poison Ivy. In case you don't know or have never experienced it, Poison Ivy and sweat do not go together!




It got on my gloves and arms from picking up logs and brush. The other places are where I touched a lot. My stomach, pulling up my pants. My nose, wiping snot.

It took us a little over four hours and we only flipped the canoe once.  We came to some quick rapids and very low trees. While trying to duck under the trees, so our heads didn't get knocked off, we both leaned too far and there we went. Luckily everything was in dry bags and tied down. Well, almost everything. Kev was trying to put his phone back into the dry box but didn't get to it fast enough. His phone got wet, but seems to work ok after sitting in a bag of rice for a few days. I didn't have my shoes strapped tight so they slid off. A friend in front of us managed to grab one shoe and one paddle. We carefully walked the canoe across the rapid and dumped the water out. I will admit I was pissed off about my shoe. I didn't talk to Kev for awhile. I know it wasn't his fault, but I wanted to be mad at someone. He promised he would replace th
