Sharon I'm so glad you enjoyed this tour. I tend to get a little 'long-winded' sometimes; So I let the pictures do most of the 'talking'. I am immune from poison ivy so I don't worry about it except to keep my gloves and clothes away from everybody else. The oils cling to cloth fabric and shoes so I have to be careful not to pass it on to others. But, no I didn't notice it because I think the birds have planted it all over
my property, especially in the flower beds! I will certainly remember Jewelweed as a remedy since it grows in every bog and meadow here. And Chicory is a very invasive 'weed' here growing along country roadsides and still blooming as of 9/1/14! Agree, it is a beautiful blue flower: I even find Poison Ivy attractive in fall and in the woods!
I'll certainly do another tour before autumn is over! Debra, glad you like that flower: It is Chicory as in this picture:
