We are living in "interesting" times and I'm sure every generation says this, but WOW!
As the sun is shining and the temperatures rise, there is a need to recharge, re-energize and enjoy life outdoors again. With Covid-19 people have being sheltered indoors, and when the sun comes out, they rush outside but may forget their sunscreen, or don't want to apply it, as it takes too long or is too thick to spread. The potential for an uncomfortable sunburn or worse skin cancer becomes a possibility.
