Mark your calendar. I saw my first June bug of the year. There will be many, many more over the next few weeks. I decided to spare you a picture. Thunk, thunk, thunk (that's the sound they make as they smash into and grab onto to any screen near a light). All evening long...thunk, thunk, thunk, thunk. Maybe it will be an off year! One can only hope.
I know, it's odd to me too that these June bugs come in May. It's even odder that they'll be gone before June gets comfortable.
However, it was much nicer to see a June bug than the opossum I was three feet away from last night. Have you ever noticed that opossums are really ugly? This was one tucked in a pine tree right outside my three-season room. It was not interested in leaving and I couldn't put Reggie out for an hour while waiting for the stupid thing to clear out! He even had red eyes...reallly, I'm telling you, ugly, ugly faces.
This is so not the Sandwich and Salad blog I had originally planned. Sorry.
