Both Ken and I have sunburns on our faces. Now Ken is not supposed to get a sunburn because he has that very light skin prone to skin cancer and I am too old to get my skin all red. But we forgot. When we were on the ferry the sun never shone a minute but the air was bright so we kept our sunglasses on the whole time when we were out on the deck. One would think that we could figure it out, that if there was so much sunlight to wear sunglasses that perhaps we could get a sunburn. But no. It never dawned on us until the next morning when we saw our racoon eyes and red cheeks. Now we call it fog burn.
It is easy when the weather is hot to stay out of the sun, but when the air is cool and the sun is not even shining we are not careful with the sun. Now we know better. Today at the cottage the day was lovely so we sat on the deck beside the water enjoying the cool breeze. Again we forgot to get out of the sun. Will we never learn?
