Made it before noon ! 
Happy Friday everybody !

Its lovely outside currently, sunny and not too warm (yet)

I'll take the rain if it keeps temp low 
 
Zeke, you still not a great admirer of the wrong coast? LOL
I've been immersed in CA real estate for the past 4 days. I google drive the neighborhoods and boy it is not as pretty as it is here LOL

Hope everybody has a great day !

Spunky, thats exactly what I would have done to the nest, but I'm not sure it is the proper way LOL but if everybody is safe, all good 

The first day I spotted it, while watering, and the hornets/bees started to come after me, I was with the dog (my son's dog) when she saw me run and scream....she ran too, in fact she almost knocked me over trying to get back in the house.

Over the next day or so, I've sprayed bug killer right into it......and that seemed to do it.....I guess, because when my son knocked it down today and jumped on it as it fell, nothing was there.....BUT I still say "he saved" the day, because I was still terrified of it.....the dog too.....we avoided it as much as possible....

My skating skills didn't help....now I need to practice "running"

  hahahaha-see you were smart-it wasn't dangerous (or as dangerous) since you killed them. Just an empty scary house LOL

Hi.....Spunky.....you and your bees....happy you made it out safe. You paint quite a funny picture.
NE......I luv luv luv Jurassic Park. I am going to try to make it this weekend. Yay. Something to look forward to.
There are some parts of CA that are beautiful. LA is not one of them.
INY. It has everything I need and love. Of course, if both my girls end up there, I may be CA bound.

Spunky, glad you survived the bees!  We woke up at one o'clock Friday morning without lights, so I ended up leaving early for the day.  We heard a teenager was out-running the police and hit an electrical pole.  We got power back at eleven.  Guess they finally caught up with him (he left the scene).  Every time I'd enter a room I'd try to turn the light on, you just forget how dependent you are on electricity, and.....no computer!!  It was such a beautiful day earlier, rain is moving in.

Yes...survived the bees experience !!

Sorry that you lost power, that is the worst thing .....I don't know how the Amish people do it....
