As kids, we got stung by something pretty much every day that stinging critters were out. It was nothing to us. All summer long there would be a small pile of baking soda on the counter. Just wet your fingers, make some paste, and cover the sting.
You are the first person I've known that also used the baking soda trick. This was my mother's treatment as well and I've used for it stings and rashes as well. When I had an allergic reaction to amoxicillin I took a baking soda bath to cool down the rash/itch.

It would be interesting to see a poll on the colorization of historical photographs. I, for one, prefer them left as they were taken. It would also be interesting to see the thoughts of photographers on this, compared to the general public. I wonder if the results would differ much.
I like the original way of colorizing old B&W photos. Digital coloring, not so much. It's a nostalgia thing I guess.
Hello everyone, I don't know why I can't find the time to get on here more often and visit. The first unread post Chet was talking about -9 degrees, Feb 10, that was the morning we left for our Silver anniversary trip to sunny FL. We drove and kept watching the temperatures rise on the truck's thermometer.
