It's officially hot & humid in the south and of course, the sun is shinning. While we can't always hide in the shade we can protect ourselves from the sun. I've gathered some usefull sites regarding sunscreen and SPF.

• May is skin cancer awareness month: protect your skin (yes, I know it's June but this is a great site from the CDC)
• Sun Exposure (a Health Topic from Medline Plus)
