Thanks Nick. I have never found a good explanation description for poison sumac before, but you have managed.
I believe we have the non-poison variety. It grows all over the property,,, but has red berries.
We do have plenty of the poison oak, tho. Gets about 2 feet tall, looks like oak leaves on a stem. Does terrible stuff when you get against it !

We need an article on bee stings next. After that, dog bites & cat scratches. Ankle sprains and stumped toes could be interesting. Do one on hay fever before spring time.

prosperity at any cost, safety first instead of duty first,
the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life.”

Chiggers and leeches, Rob. Tapeworms, hangnails and squeaky doors. Only you need to tie all those together into one cohesive article. You can tell a little story.
