Wow JD hope you are both OK!

Some people will eat anything in ice cream. I have to admit I would like to try maple bacon sometime. I had a maple bacon Long John one time and it was heavenly.

Why did they want to come here? I bet they don't like snow and icy weather.

Good morning to all. I hope you have a blessed day. Today I am definitely counting my blessings
Yesterday my wife and I had a run in with some africanized bees . We only got stung a few times because we vacated the area post haste. Unfortunately I pulled a hamstring on the end of the run. My wife had to take a heavy dose of benadryl.

May you both feel better soon

I've read those bees will chase you for a good distance- what a bunch of nasties they are.

Good thing you can still run!

can't we send them back to Africa? Why did they want to come here? I bet they don't like snow and icy weather.

They escaped after a breeding program in South America. Notice it says Africanized...They are not from Africa and are a hybrid of African and European bees.

BTW, the above post about sending them back to Africa is a Racial slur in some places. We need to be careful LOL.

A racial slur about bees? Is that a thing now? Do the bees even care? Then, instead of suggesting they be sent back, IF that's even a racial slur, can we suggest they be eradicated? From what I've read, they don't coexist well with native bees, and that's not good. The hybridized bees seem to be more vulnerable to colony collapse than native bees, so we don't need the africanized ones wiping out the native ones.

Just in case I edited that out of my post. Can't be too careful nowadays .

Yikes, that is scary! Hope you heal quickly.
