To: don-o; Mrs. Don-o
I('m just posting this so you can see what I've been battling, and so that I'll have it here on FR as a ready reference:

English Ivy

Boston Ivy

Virginia Creeper

and...

POISON IVY!!

As in... "Leaves of Three, Leave it Be!"

Okay, I have that Virginia Creeper stuff everywhere and do my best to stay away from it ... does it make skin itch?

Thanks for the reminder and the great pictures. We had the electric company out here a month ago because of sporadic outages. They informed me that 1) squirrels had built a nest at ground level and chewed up the lines where they go underground and 2) we had poison ivy growing on our pole. I’ve never seen it around here, but I’m going to be careful.
