Pollenation Station

Our backyard was attacked by butters and bees this weekend! I am sure my nature lovin' Brooklyn neighbors bah-fung-gued me whilst I was investigating my little flighty friends. I didn't capture this part, but this GIANT, and I mean fuggin'-yugeah (mobster speak for fucking huge) wasp was following me around. I looked pretty awesome ducking and diving from its Kamikaze attacks...until... the shovel came out. Yep, I tried to kill the beast with a shovel, but was too scared to hit it for fear that I might not kill it on the first try and it would come back mad as a hatter. So, here I am taking pretty little pictures of god's creations and swinging a shovel madly in the air screaming for it to "just land asshole, so I can kill you!". It never landed and I am sure it is back there plotting its' revenge.

Pokin' Hoes
















The east coast provides a great many things. Among them, the ability to get to other cities fairly quickly. 2 hours to Philly, 4 to Boston, 2 to Connecticut and.......1.5 to the Poconos where we "summered" this last weekend. Truckin' down there in a early 90's Toyota min-van (thanks Trudy's ma and pa), we rocked out , we pit stopped, and talked of the giddy fun the weekend would bring. We stopped off for a quick tube float down the Delaware River...yes the same river where Washington claimed victory! Victory, I say! Such grand fun we did have. There were waterfalls to go down, a near drowning experience by yours truly (which encouraged more laughing than screams of terror from byfloaters), and hot dog eating in the river. On to the house, we BBQ'd, Catched Phrased, and beer guzzled our way through the weekend. But not with out Appalachian Trail hiking, forest walking and front yard swimming. To top it off like a maraschino cherry, the day we were leaving, a mama deer and her twin babies came up to the lawn and let us feed them Ritz crackers! Awww....so cute. I was freaking out with excitement while everyone else was yelling at me to stop feeding them. Enjoy the pictures!
