Thank God for zinc oxide! Cannon, here, is the poster boy for the stuff. (He's had his share of bacon nose.)Living in this area, whether your surfin' or turfin', sometimes calls for extreme skin care measures. Zinc oxide has come a long way from the fishy, oily butt ointment manufacturers (which we do use in times of desperation.) Now you can get it without the fishy smell and in all sorts of fun colors. The kids end up looking like face painted warriors running up and down the beach, but if it prevents a fried nose....bring it on!
At competitions, we tend to be stocked with the stuff and offer it to any kid from any beach that looks like they're going to be sizzling at day's end.
Yeah Tami, I love it. I can't wait for Keith to come home so I can show him. You are a darn good writer too!
