Bees and Fay. Do they mix?

Typical call on a typical day.
Not cooling.
Everything seems normal.
Until I notice a bunch of bees around.
Bees don't typically bother me. Wasps are another story.
I see the neighbor as a few palm trees with blossoms on them and a LOT of bees buzzing around them.
Again, relatively normal.
THEN I SEE IT.


A nest of bees up in the eave, on the roof of the house.

It's hard to see in these pictures, but this nest is big. Real big.

I tell the customer about there situation and the knew all about it, and they had no plans for removal. They even went as far as to tell me they are also in the attic, and they come IN the house sometimes.

I don't know about you but I would have an issue with a nest like this on my house. I also would have a major issue with bees in my home.

Oh well, to each it's own.

Fay, Fay blow away. Come another hurricane day.

3 things that I do not like:

Bee hives the size of a small bed.

Hurricanes in the Caribbean.

And poorly installed air conditioning systems.

Stay cool and have some fun,

Tim

PS I also don't like octopus when diving, they give me the willies.

Jerry Week

8-1-1942 - 8-9-1995
May you rest in peace.

For the people who did not know, Sirius radio has the Grateful Dead channel. 24/7
Needless to say we listen to it all the time.
It was Jerry week and had some real classic interviews and music.
A guy called in for a request and said "You know the song, the one with a long jam in the middle"
I thought that was funny as can be.

Tough week. Hot as can be. Thursday the attic peaked out at 126 degrees. Can't drink enough water. As always job came out great even with the mind melting temps.

Have fun,
Tim

Oh yea, OCC rocks!

That Smell


Can you smell it?

It's in the air.

Sounds of a hit.

Sweat drips from their hair.

Practice all day.

Rest all night.

Bruises are the price you pay.

Block with all your might.

Football my Friends, that's our game.
