A Hole in the Wall

I have to admit, I dont recall having a summer. We went to the beach a few times and the Green reunion, but thats about it. How sad. But I am getting the creative itch to do all things holiday and am waiting for the projects to start. But, we are wanting to move so I am spending time and energy on fixing the house. We just had a bee guy come out because we had a hive up in the roof. The bees picked the hardest part of the whole house to get to. The bee guy had to blast a hole in the upstairs bathroom wall to get to the hive. Yay for us! He spent 6 hrs on the job.
We wanted to save the hive but he said they have been Africanized and were aggressive. so he had to kill them. Weird cause we never actually had a problem with them except them being in our wall. He proceeded to remove the honey...and more honey.....and more honey. It turns out the hive has been there a year or more. Who Knew? we just noticed them a few months ago. so he ended up pulling out about 70 lbs of honey from our wall. We didnt get to keep it cause he used pesticides on it. so the inner walls got a good cleaning and we are left with a large hole as a reminder. He would have closed it but Jared wants to do it himself. So thats the adventure of the week.
