Let's Get This Clear

I love the sound of cicadas. I do not like the shells of cicadas.

Particularly when they are left on my fence, right where I usually grip to pull it closed.

  1. blech. Not as bad though as seeing moth catepillars crawling through your bird food. I nearly lost it. Had to have Jer dispose. Gotta buy bird food tonight.

  2. Definitely better than a live wasp that is sitting on a chair in prime position for stinging when you move it to vacuum ....

  3. Too funny how this quickly evolves into a discussion "What could be worse than a cicada shell?"

    hee hee

    For the record, worse than a cicada shell is a june bug flying hapazardly and unpredictable through the house.

  4. Nor as bad as one of your grandmothers told about a plague of grasshoppers that stripped foliage from the fruit trees, leaving only the seeds of the peaches. The trains stopped running...the rails were so slippery from the invasion of the hoppers they couldn't get traction.
    (PS..first guy doesn't have a chance does he.)

  5. he he he he he ... grasshoppers ... oh the best grasshopper story EVER though was a trip to Elk Falls with my wonderful children. Btw, we found out Adella has some serious speed when the motivation is there.
    Sorry, I know the grasshopper plague would have grossed me out but I can not THINK of grasshoppers without thinking of Adella flipping out over one.
