Nope, was going to cut the grass, lawn tractor won’t start. So I got on the bigger John Deere and commence to bush hog the higher stuff and broke a shear pin. Yep that how thick it was.

Son called and said he might try to get some barb wire stretched since it’s cooled down. It’s only 89 in the shade. Yep I feel like I’m home!

So you broke the lawn tractor, then you run over stumps with the John Deere and break a shear pin, then you son mentioned pulling barbed wire and you have to wait for shade. Wow!

Kevan, don't know how to tell you this but a chain saw is just way too big for poison ivy. That's a weed wacker job.

Moose, I was actually cutting the tree down that the Ivy was wrapped around.

Have you heard of Technu? They sell a scrub you wash with after working around poison ivy. Also some creams if you do get a rash.

I highly recommend the stuff.

Was this tree a relative of your Jumping Tree?

Since your already broken out, then I’ll just stand back and watch! You should have that tree finished in no time.

Warning serious comment ahead.
Breaking out from poison ivy is due to contact with a fine clear oil on the plant. If this was a thick colored oil like motor oil it would be muck easier to notice but it’s not. Once in contact it takes some time before an allergic reaction to start. Washing your exposed skin with soap and water or products like Tecnu will remove the invisible oil before the allergic reaction starts.

It’s important to wash clothing, wipe down tools, gloves and anything that this oil might have been on. Avoiding wiping down your tools could lead to new reactors without even being around new plants.

I treated a lady that kept coming in with a rash on hands, forearms and across her forehead. Turned out she had failed to wash her garden gloves and when she got hot would wipe the sweat from her forehead.

Serious comment over.

Distant relative.
It was at other end of driveway. Luckily it fell parallel to driveway. Sadly it took down a Dogwood.

Someone else said it, but please don't call Tim names, like "Common." He's a Pharm boy and it is difficult for him to take those insults from city slickers.

Yep, go ahead Kevan. Try and cover up your screw-up.

Very good serious comment but do you really think Kevan will take his yearly bath early?
