1. Always wear sunscreen.
If you are not going to wear sunscreen, do not garden in the middle of the day.
If you do get sunburned put on lots of aloe and try not to touch the burn.
2. Always wear bug spray.
If you are not going to wear bug spray, do not garden when the mosquitoes are out.
If you do get mosquitoes bites put on lots Cortisone crème and try not to scratch the bites.
3. DO NOT get mosquitoes bites on top of a sunburn (or vice versa).
If you are going to...well just don't do it!
PS. Actually, as I was writing this post it reminded me of a speech I heard a few years back. It was by Baz Luhrman and fittingly entitled, Wear Sunscreen. I think his advice is some I should remember more often!

3. OUCH!!
Still, it was worth it, right? If you had to do it all over again and could get rid of the burn and bug bites, I'm sure you would.
Misquitos on top of a sunburn...that sounds horrible! Your garden looks great though!
