Day #202 Comment from #206

Hi Karen, As you may know the poison ivy rash is caused from a chemical burn.
It is likely that the chemicals from the poison ivy that 'burned' you the first time remained in your clothing... burning you again when you put them on for the second time.
Poison Ivy does not grow in Newfoundland, nor is it abundant in the rest of Atlantic Canada, your time on the trail in the east will be free from the poison ivy blues... not too likely to encounter a grisly bear or cougar here either.
See you on the trail! Ms. Fellowbuncher July 16, 2007 6:45 PM
