After mowing yesterday, I noticed a couple of bumps on my left arm just above the wrist. They itched. I figured it was a bug bite.
24 hours later I have blots on my arms, legs, and possibly my belly. They itch.
I asked Emily what her advice was, she said go to the doctor. But he was already gone.
I have used lotion on them and that helps, as does Benadryl. But all that wears off after a while.
I don't remember touching any plant. I did trim with my weed whacker, and stuff did spray up on me, but I don't remember anything but grass.
Hopefully it goes away. Soon.
I went to Amboy today. Amboy is a little town southwest of us. Amboy has a population of just a little under 3,000. It's small.
I like the town, although I noticed it looked a little "tired" this trip.
They have a great museum, several bars, a grocery store and a huge celebration called Depot Days. A merchant named Carson and his associate Pirie opened a dry goods store here sometime in the 1870s. Carson, Pirie, Scott was the result.
But the big deal is the 50/50 drawing they do at Depot Days. This drawing is in it's 18th year, if I did the math right. Last year's winner got........$110,000. You read that correctly, $110,000.
Winner need not be present to win. They can call me anytime.
