We all want to get out and enjoy the warm months in various ways, walking, swimming, canoeing, picnics in the park and beyond.

When planning what to take with you, sunscreen should be on your list, skin cancer rates are on the rise and this is serious business, no one wants any type of cancer and this type can kill you too.
