“A result of constant contact playing in the woods behind our house growing up.”

Eggs Ackley the opposite for me! I used to be able to roll in it as a kid. Then, in my teens, working as an apprentice carpenter, the guys clearing lots burned a bunch of it. Almost ended up in the hospital!

The poison ivy worked well on my signs! Neighbor’s kid got it big time! And,,,, as a 14 year old,,,, I’d bet he didn’t just get it on his hands,,,, if ya know what I mean! 8^D

LOL re the kid.

BTW, constant exposure can result in immunity (me) or hypersensitivity (several buddies of mine and apparently you). Got one buddy who had to go to the hospital last time he was exposed to a little poison ivy. Not fun...
