5. Swimmer's itch?

Never heard of that but I don't swim much. The Madison and Yellowstone Rivers have been getting too warm several years in a row. Agreed, this year has been wet and cool compared to most of the past fifteen but that's over now, too. It's way too hot for me and I'm out in it every day right now, and very thankful when the rain comes.

I don't know what the funk was but it stopped bothering me after a couple days but I had to put salve on my feet for a couple days to get rid of it.
