I'm not having any luck with electronics this week Rick! I can't even read your email thru TTOL! We still have plans to come over so I'll call and let you know when.

For the sea urchin, one of our daytrip group stepped on one last year. The locals jumped into action and got a candle. Dripped hot candle wax on the spines. When it cooled they pulled it off along with the spines. It worked and the "patient" walked away no worse for the wear

Thanks for the advice Norma but there are no spines sticking out. He just has these black dots all over the bottom of his foot. I tried shaving them off as WebMD suggested but they are under his skin. Next step is to soak his foot in vinegar as that is supposed to kill the venom. It was also suggested that epsom salts would work but I can't find any close by.
