First Sign of Summer

So as I was enjoying the wonderful weather that is spring I was buzzed, repeatedly, by a large flying insect. It decided that it needed to get a head start on summer and chase me arond a little. (The only real reason I gain weight during the winter is because no flying insects are chasing me.)

I'm just glad the June Bugs aren't going to be out before I leave; please, please let them not be out before I leave. Those things are so nasty, at least here they are smaller then the ones in Alaska... all you MN people who think your bugs are big - they are NOTHING compared to AK bugs. AK bugs have never heard of pesticides; and you all complain about misquitos like they are attacking you in the cities. Let me just tell you that I grew up next to a river and a stagnant mosquito breeding ground... there were more mosquitos around my house than most of you have ever seen in one place.

But June bugs are the worst.... icky....

So hello flying bugs, and hello summer!
