You beat me to it I was just going to post that they are back. They are swarming in the bushes, well actually I think they are doing something else in the bushes.

I'm going to be good and not say how much I loathe the little buggers. Really I am. {sitting on my hands now}

May and September.....there's no getting around it. Hint, spray Hydrogen Peroxide on those that are on your car, let it set and fizz a few minutes and they are much easier to clean off. I've been doing this for years and it won't hurt your paint.

Keep some laundry sheets in your glove box. Lightly dampen and wipe. Gets the guts right off. You will have to wash the car later because the sheet leaves a film on the car but really makes removing them easy.

For some reason Soul Train was shown on Sunday morning which was perfect after dancing the night away on Saturday.

Wow, we just missed them on our late May visit and we are arriving Oct 9, so I am hoping that they have come and gone before we arrive this time too.
Fingers crossed!

Saw an uncoupled lovebug a few days ago and the "Lookn' for Love in All the Wrong Places" tune immediately started running through my mind!
