Is there a downside to Botanizing?

Botanzing is the coolest job in the world. I get to travel and collect plants from beaches to mountain ranges to alpine meadows. Honestly, being outdoors, collecting plants, soaking in the sunshine, the snow, the rain, sleet, hail, tornados... rain, snow or shine... botanizing makes it all worth it. No downside to botanizing.

I have been made fun of in the field because rain, snow or shine I usually wear a long sleeve t-shirt. Why  do I do this? Especially when it's over 100 degrees out? To protect my skin from seen and unseen oils which are famous for causing my skin to break out. Too bad I forgot my rule when I started weeding in our backyard a couple of days ago.

After going to the urgent care doctor this morning to get meds... I may have discovered a downside to botanizing.

ps. my face caught some of the action as well  :)
