I sent the picture to our county agent and got his email back. He said this is southern poison ivy.
I must be immune or not allergic to it because I did not break out.
While I was right in the middle of a big vine by the time I noticed it; I did come straight inside a take a good hot shower. About 24 hrs later I did have 3 or 4 spots on my arms; forehead; and back of my neck that tingled and itched a little it was nothing more than spots that felt like my arm was going to sleep. I never did get any red spots or break out in blisters.
It has been 48 hrs now and all signs and itch are totally gone.
I guess I better break out the roundup and sprayer this weekend because there is no use pushing my luck.
Thanks for all the advise giving on the original post.
