  last year, i was driving and my wife was in the passenger seat.

  a wasp flew in the window and landed on her.

  she started screaming like she had been shot.

  Abaddon, I had the same type of experience with a wasp in my drink. I was on our back deck drinking a cooler. I took a chug and bit into what I thought was an ice cube, but as soon as I realized I didn't put ice cubes in my drink that was when the wasp stung my lip. I too projectiled the whole thing out of my mouth drink and the wasp, which was still clinging to life. My in-laws who were out there with me were totally stunned by the whole scene. My lip began to immediately swell. Man that smarts!

  Now when ever I drink something outside, I'll always take a look before I chug a lug.

  JT yes there is an Indian legend to this Sleeping Giant of ours.

  There are trails that get us to the top of the Giant. There are four trails that lead to different areas of the giant, one that leads to the top of its head, one to his chest, his knees and a bottom trail that leads to his feet. The trails that lead to the top of the Giant give you a magnificent view of our City and surrounding areas.

  The bottom trail actually goes all around the bottom of the giant, a circle tour, which has designated tenting sites.

  Proph, that's exactly what we do. It takes three hours to get down the river, but with the pitstop at the beach, it takes all afternoon. And sometimes when it's real hot we'll get back on the bus to go down again.

  Proph, no we don't have white water rafting in our area. We do have tubing parties down the river. Which are much fun on hot summer days.

  We start at the top, stop at a beach about half way, to play a little beach volleyball and eat smokies and hot dogs and then continue down the river to the end. Of course we are always in plenty supply of liquid refreshment which is on a separate tube in a large cooler.

  Here's another for our favourite monkey.

  Hey Sith it's a little cool right now for naked camping in our area.

  KLS, that harbour view is what I see every morning going to work. I love it!

  Usually its the other way around in my house, I'm killing the spiders while the rest of the family is fleeing for their lives.

  When I see a bee or wasp I just run.

  are there any other people here who are into bicycling or handcycling?.

  last year, my husband got a handcycle (he can't use a bicycle due to handicap) and i got a new bicycle and we have been enjoying cycling.

  last september, we went on our first cycling tour and did the 20 mile.

  Hubby and I do a lot while we're camping. We have a Provincial Park here that we do the mountain biking. Some of the hills are gruesome but once you do the trail a couple of times, and get the bike legs back into shape, we conquer them. This weekend will be our first weekend out, I plan on doing the 18 km trail around the lake.
