I'm so glad you visited! Thank you! Coppertone is great especially when the other stuff (the stuff with nanoparticles) falls off with the sweat - today is going to be a coppertone day... Stay cool! (I don't know what to do about the pics - a mysterious formatting issue but they look ok on mine...) Pam!! I’m so glad you visited! Thank you!

Only get burned when I forget to put it on. I've never of these nanoparticles either. What next? By the way, some of the photos are blocking your wonderful prose.
