Mr. Beanz is now Mr.Tanner! Sun Anyone?
How do you guys do in the sun? Couple of weekends in a tanktop and I'm now Mr. Tanner. I wear plenty of sunscreen but I still get dark! When I used to play ball and tournaments, I spent lots of time in the sun. Always a dark tan. My brother in law used to call me ''Dark and Lovely"!

I turn cherry red, regardless of sunscreen use. I cannot for the life of me tan at all, only thing that gets me close to darker is those spray on tans. However those spray-on tans make me look like an oompa-loompa (bright orange).

Honestly, the few days of rain that we are putting up with now is nothing to get that upset about. I would imagine that any of the people in the central United States that lost their homes to flooding a couple of weeks ago would have loved to just be dealing with what we are getting now verses what they got.

Consider yourself lucky. My kid colored a crayon picture of the sun with a smiley face on it, and I got a sunburn from it.

I'm the child of a mother whose skin is like porcelain and an olive-toned father. Unlike my poor mom, SPF 30-45 waterproof sunscreen will work for a good long time and I turn a very light gold. I never get any darker than that but I also never go out for more than 10 minutes without sunscreen. My brother is more like our dad and can get quite dark. Genetics are a funny thing.
