Darrell 1, Bees 0

I know your all sitting on the edge of your seats wanting to know how the bee situation turned out. Well I'm glad to report that after emptying an entire can of "Bug-b-gone" and using 3/4 of a tube of caulking the bee's are no more!

F*ck*ig Bees!

It's a WAR! We have bees going into an opening in the wall where our airconditioner hooks up to the house. Sunday night I whent out and bought some CIL wasp and hornet spay the the can claimed works on bees and sprayed the crap out of the hole they were flying in and out of. No bee's came out wile I was spraying so I figured "Good, I got the little buggers now I can just caulk the hole up and end of problem!" - Nothing in my life is that easy, the next moring I got up and checked and sure enough the same 4 or 5 bees were hanging around. I ran into the house and sprayed the crap out of the hole again and managed to hit a few bees in the process. The part that got me was this CIL stuff had NO effect on the bees that I hit - they just flew around angrily. A few minutes later they seemed to leave and there were no more bees. Ofcourse with my luck they were back again that evening when I got home after work!
Last night it poured rain and it just wasn't a good time to caulk the hole so this morning I checked and sure enough there were 4 or 5 bees busily buzzing in and out of the hole.
My plan now is all out war on the little pests. The first thing I'm going to do is get some moth balls (apperently they hate moth balls) and hang them close to the hole then I'm gonna go buy the most expencive bee killing spray i can get and just waste the entire can on the hole and then caulk it up.
I only noticed the hole on Saturday and have never seen them there before (it's near the pool pump and I spend alot of time there) so I'm 98% sure they are only starting to build a nest.
I'll let you know how it turns out tomorrow. Tomorrow they will all die - AHAHAHAH HAHAHA AHAHA!!!!!!!!
I'm fine, really, I'm ok, they're just bees after all.

Camping

Over the weekend Tracy and I went camping for the first time this year. We just went for one night at Fitzroy campground and it was good to just get camping again. Our tent wasn't in the best of shape tho, last year we apparently rolled it up still wet and it smelled musty and still has lots of sap from Sandbanks all over it. (Got to remember to air it our and waterproof it!)
The weather was really good for the most part. It only rained for an hour or so around 5pm. Ok it poured rain for an hour or so.
The best part of camping is still sitting around the fire drinking a beer at the end of day.
The funny part was when we got up the next morning we couldn't really wait to get back home and into our pool! We had breakfast and rolled up the tents and were on the road by 10:45am. If we were still on Huntley we would stuck around until 1:00 and then would have spent the better part of the day at the day use area.
