It Burns

I took the boys up to the Lake on the Hill today so they could get some swimming and play time in.  I brought along some fishing gear and sat down on the rocks and fished.  I didn't come close to catching anything, just casting and reeling which is what I'm good at.  Catching fish seems so overrated anyway.  I'm not going to eat it and would merely be catching and releasing so this way I avoid getting my hands slimy... yep that's it, that is my excuse.  Anyway, the boys had a good time though they fought over a tube I let them bring.  I guess I need to learn that they each need their own and thus we can avoid the fighting over whose turn it is .  It was a good time for the most part and then we left and then I felt the burn.  I'm not talking the socialist running for president.  I'm talking sun burn to the extreme.  My knees are fried along with the insides of my shins on both legs.  It is beet red and it is not feeling all that comfy.  Oh well, just working on my color, the hard way.  Should make for a good trip.  That nice long drive with sunburned arms and legs is going to be fantastic.  I need to remember sun screen a little better.
