Danae: All the problems I see have one thing in common... Lucy: Itchy bums? Danae: No...people! Now I just have to figure out a solution. Lucy: Try rubbing your bum on a tree. Danae: Ok, it does feel pretty good, but I don't see how it helps solve the problems. Lucy: After a while you won't care.

I think “not caring” is part of the problem.

Lucy needs to be wormed. Or checked for ticks.

Just don’t rub on a poison oak tree.

Does look like it would feel good, except maybe for the splinters.

Don’t try this on a creosote treated pole. Or you’ll feel the burn.

holding your lips just right makes a big difference also…

Doesn’t poison oak grow on trees, like poison ivy….?

Strangely enough, one of the most common causes of tail rubbing is either a dirty udder (in a mare) or a dirty sheath (in a gelding/stallion). I know…TMI!

I have been satisfyingly scratching my bum on the Tree of Life for over 70 years !

Is dis anal? Hope not, just rude habit. Lucy is horsing about and Danae seems distracted by what which and all this.

jahoodyBoth are Rhus toxicodendron. If there is something to hold onto, it is a vine (ivy), if not, it is a small shrub (oak). Not related to oak trees at all, but to sumac.

Ah, but backs gets into Bear territory! Maybe we’ll get to see some Wiley-bears working out on a tree soon… (We can hope!)

Then he has high hopes.

I’m going to find a tree and try that. It’s got to be better and make more sense than watching the Trump and Hillary show at 6:30 every evening.

The itchy bums are called pin worms a lot of kids on farms get them from the horses or other live stock. For Lucy tube paste. For the kid a shot on the bum from the Doc that will take care of the itchy. The kid got to learn to keep her fingers and hands clean and out of her mouth. I have to laugh what crazy memories!
