Yeah, Rusty, them bumblef**ks will sure ruin yer day! I was about 17 first time I found a bumblebee nest in the ground with the AC and mower.

Man, I was laughing so hard, he was steering from the fence to the ditch bank swatting at the dash and hollarin'!!! Worst part was, he led 'em right at me, so I took of on foot fer the crick.

All told, I got near 2 hours break in.
