My family spent a couple of hours at a community water park yesterday, and I meticulously put sunscreen on my face and arms, and wore a swim shirt and a ball cap. But I forgot to put sunscreen on my feet. Now I have lobster-red feet, with white stripes that perfectly delineate my sandal straps. I’m a shoes-and-socks guy most of the time, and my lower shins and feet are white as snow. Well, not any more. I’m not going to post a picture, since nobody wants to see my ugly feet.

If someone could make a non-greasy spray on sunscreen, I’d pay them whatever they wanted. I hate rubbing it on, but I also hate the greasiness of the spray stuff.

yup, I tend to forget because of my swarthiness, but yeah, gotta get those feet.

I use a rub-in sunscreen, and yes, it’s kind of awful. We were climbing on one of those big platform spray splash structures, and the water running down my face was bringing sunscreen into my mouth. It tasted horrible.

I really don’t need anything on my arms, since living in TX means that I’m in short sleeves 11 months out of the year and my skin is dark to begin with. But my feet rarely see any sunshine at all.

Happened to me when I went to Mexico. Finished a 400 page book on the beach, forgot sunblock on my hands and feet. It was awful. And part of the reason why I say that I come from a proud Scottish family that has given up on God and started praying to sunblock instead.

I’ve had several strange sunburns, including one that was only my feet. The funniest one was during a visit to Padre Island. We were trying to wrangle kids while putting on sunscreen and gathering our junk for the beach. In the mayhem, my wife did a half-ass job of putting sunscreen on my back and chest. I ended up with a set of stripes worthy of a Pollock painting.

Also the tips of your ears and the back of the neck!

I burnt the crap out of the tops of my feet one summer at Nags Head.

What’s up with the van? My guy actually stuck his nose into the coolant overflow tank, and called it by the smell. Then he put the tip of his tailpipe probe into the opening and his smog machine detected exhaust. CO2, I think.
