Wasp's Nest

The girls were climbing the apple tree a few days ago and happened upon this. Of course this frightened them, and as they ran into the house clambering about a nest in the tree I searched out Mark and the wasp spray. Having an allergic reaction to a sting many years ago I try to avoid these things. As Mark and I were trying to decide what type of bee lived in this thing, in flew a large black buzzing bug. Very large and very loud. Needless to say the nest was sprayed and removed from the tree. It now temporarily resides in the bottom of the garbage can and will soon have a permanent home at the dump.

Since the removal of the nest the girls returned to climbing the tree. The little monkeys.
