Sometimes...

I am not the brightest light bulb in the room! Yellow jackets were making their nest on one of my fence panels. Yesterday I knocked it off with a long pole with no problems. Well about 20 minutes ago I kicked it and I paid the price hahaha

I’d be on the edge of death. I swell up like a balloon. Carry an epi pen everywhere I go from March through October.

I have been stung so many times I’m thankful I am not allergic! It’s dark and I think I got rid of those pesky yellow jackets. Did a little dance on their nest and at least with my flashlight I can’t see any survivors. Wasn’t a very big nest I think there was about 15 or so using it. The black lab got stung at least twice tonight and my daughter was minding her own business and she got stung once. Not sure what purpose yellow jackets serve but I will continue to kill them. Honeybees and bumblebees on the other hand will get a free pass. One time I got stung three times by bumble bees. I’m sure Ricardo the Spaniard has been stung plenty of times

I had some trying to build a nest in my BBQ a couple years back....pretty sure it's easy to figure out how that went :D

First rule of boating is "Never touch a trailer tongue without first giving it a kick to see if someone's home."
