Tennessee has shown me many treasures,,sunsets, mountains and streams. This is one I have found to be frightening,,,,There were 10 total of these vines. All at least the size of my wrist and bigger. The worst thing is,,,these trees are EVERYWHERE!!!
My tastes have changed as I`ve gotten older,,,Like I never really like spankings when I was younger. Oh yeah, go ahead and piss me off,,I need another felony conviction (Helmet stickers.) To love without fear and to be loved without guilt,,,my wish for us all..

Re: Can you say,,,POISON IVY???
tncreeker,BullsGap,Not to far from Cosby,the BEST place I ever lived!!!!!!!!!Watch out for Poison Oak Too!!!!!!!!!Had it ONCE,nasty stuff.I've seen those vines as big as my leg. God Bless Chris
I didnt cross the fence,,,,I was on the safe side I thought. While in the woods that day I musta missed a vine somewhere,,,,I`m nursing the blisters on my lips,,,,yes its poison,,not fever blisters. I`ve had the poison on my lips before, and my eyes and wrists and everywhere else,,,well almost,,havent squatted on it yet. These woods are brutal.

Somethin to remember; be careful diggin around poison ivy, cause you can get the rash from the roots. I've never had it, and I have done some reading that relates your histamine level to your susceptibility, but I didn't understand it. Goose-O, good approximation of somebody's accent, damn Yankee. (Just kidding) We pronounced it 'bob wah-ur'. As opposed to our pronunciation of 'hot wah-ur', i.e. electric fence. Which commonly was called during an unexpected encounter and contact in the field --expletive deleted--.
RGINN,,
I got poison on my wrist trying to pull out a root. I wrapped that baby around my wrist twice and did the heeve ho,,,,I didnt know what the root was. The band of blisters was aprox. 2 inches wide all the way around. I just cant seem to stay away from it,,,so I`m thinking maybe someday I`ll be immune. Wishful thinking huh?

Unfortunately they say each encounter gets worse. I caught it for the first time so I read about it.
I live in a state of rules where I am not permitted to live on my own country land because my home is not 130 MPH rated! I can only visit it from time to time and pay the fines. I feel so safe with Big Government protecting me. In some states its illegal to collect rainwater.
