Morgan is the girl I was telling you about that dances ballet and raises and shows hogs at the fairs.
A farm girl, after my own heart and a little tiny thing.
This is the baby quilt I had set aside for them.
===============================================
At 3:30 they were back.
Watch video here.
and when they took up that big chunk, I yelled, "WATCH OUT THERE'S A BEES NEST!"
Watch video here:
Look at the amazing tunnels those ground bees have made!!
The guys said they'd come back tomorrow to finish up. Hope the bees have a new home.
Lovely about being told first! Yes!!! Remember this, when times come along, and you get to feeling "blue." :-)
ReplyDeleteMud bees!!!!!!
You went down there, to film?!?!?
Mercy!
Marcus and Morgan, look how cute they are! Congratulations to them, and you for being the first to know.
ReplyDeleteI read about the driveway on FB. A mess, huh?
That's really sweet when you get to be the first to know. I had the same thing when my great-nephew knew he and his wife were having the boy I wanted.
ReplyDeleteThe bees nest is nasty! And scary, enough bees to kill a person. What did they do about them so they don't swamp to another place in the park?
I could watch a forklift all day long. Mesmerizing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute couple Marcus and Morgan make. So sweet that they wanted you to be the first to know.
That video of the bees is really something.
Congrats to your grandson. They make a cute couple. What an honor to be the first to know. They must think an awful lot for you. Ok, I consider myself somewhat savvy when it comes to the outdoors, but I have never seen or heard of ground bees. I actually had to google it. You learn something new everyday. Thanks for the video.
ReplyDeleteI knew about Ground Wasps--holes in the lawn, with the nest below. My grandson got bit several times when he decided to poke sticks down a hole he had found. I just never knew bees did that. They are like bumble bees. I had seen the hole several weeks ago, but didn't try to flood them out with water. Like I told the guy this morning, when he came back to spray, "Better a nest of bees, than snakes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
ReplyDeleteCONGRATS to the newly engaged! They look so young ... and adorable.
ReplyDeleteThis whole driveway/bee project is very very interesting! Thanks for sharing. Our condo had a huge hive of honey bees ... a bee scientist came, plucked the Queen from her throne and put her in a little cage. He put the cage in his enclosed truck and within 15 minutes, all the bees had followed her. They drove off, about an hour away. Next morning we still had about 1,000 bees ... turns out there were TWO queens ... so they had to come back to get the rest of them! Fascinating!
awwww, what a sweet couple, he is so handsome!! congrats to the happy couple!!! i LOVE their quilt, they will too!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Grandma of the Groom!!! What a sweet couple, and how precious that he wanted to share that with you.
