Bees, Bees, Bees!




I had just arrived home from biking a tortuous 16 mile climb up the canyon and back. I was just about to let the Chihuahuas out to do their business, and I suddenly had to stop. Something wasn't right. There were hundreds, thousands, no, millions of bees right next to the house. At first I thought I was delirious from the lack of oxygen to my brain from the bike ride and was seeing things. No, it really was a swarm of bees. I'm okay and sting free, thanks for asking! Luckily, the little busy bodies flew away about an hour later.

Oh my goodness! That is scary. There was a swarm recently that rested for a few hours in a guys open jeep on the beach out here a few days ago. Yikes! Regarding your question about 40 or 50. . . neither have bothered me, really. I just take it all in stride and figure it's better than the alternative. Thanks for visiting and commenting!

Wow! That's a lot of bees! My youngest is scared of bees--I blame it on a Thomas and Friends episode that he saw when he was a toddler!
