OH, that's what poison ivy looks like?????????

We have this huge burning bush in our yard that the kids have decided is their clubhouse. They both climb up in it and hang out there for hours. Over the last few days we have been researching poisonous plants because we have been going fishing a lot and wanted to know what to avoid. Anyways, today Chuck noticed that there was a vine that looks a lot like poison ivy right in the middle of the clubhouse. I guess that explains the nasty rash Eli has had on his face and neck the last few weeks that I can't seem to get rid of. So until we get some gloves and can hack it out the clubhouse is CLOSED FOR BUSINESS.

Poison Ivy is no fun. My sister picked what she thought were autumn leaves for her teacher and ended up blown up like a balloon. She had to have a series of shots.
Hopefully your children can go back to their fun clubhouse again pretty soon.
How is the fishing out there?
