    I couldn't find that poison ivy grows in your neck of the woods. I don't know what poison sumac looks like in nature because we don't have it. Poison ivy is really bad here so they actually point it out at a weekly ride I do. I meant I am amazed at the number of people I ride with here that know poison ivy is bad here but don't know how to identify it. They will take a break standing in a patch! And yes, I will point it out if I see it.

    Here's a little drawing of the leaves. You can find lots of pictures in Google Images if you are concerned, I found I only learned once I saw it enough. Oh and I still don't know all our poisonous spiders, I learned the snakes so I wouldn't panic every time I see one. I hate snakes so I had to learn that some are okay.
