One of those boogers stung me Saturday. I climbed onto my 450 and got her started, put her in gear, dang dang dang something just stung me on the back of my elbow. I proceeded to find my self swarmed by paper wasps, I shifted out of 1st gear and dumped the clutch ready to hit the ground running. As the tractor lurched rearward I realized steering wheels are hard and I had found reverse instead of neutral. Dang things are crawling all over me now, mower is starting to jacknife. Finally i find the clutch, shift out of gear with the left hand, my hat in the right hand flailing wildly around hoping to ward off anymore stings. This time I ease off the clutch, kill the switch and jump off at dead run.

Went to the other shop to get the wasp killer, full can but none comes out. Find the break cleaner and head back to the tractor. With the spray can ready I spy that they are all milling around the seat bracket but I can't see their lair. So I give the whole area a good hose down, and they seem to be cooperating now. I lifted the seat up and found Home Sweet Home, I fully saturated the rest of them.

Its always one thing or another around here.

Nate
