USA Mega Trip - July & August 2022

[Alex]

Today I'm checking the pump houses that pull water from wells and into the filtration house before pumping onwards into the main building. There was a large bees nest in the first one I checked.

No match for some IH denim, and a face mask though!

dare you to approach airport security wearing that

@jordanscollected:

dare you to approach airport security wearing that

I can't say why exactly but I feel like the jeans tucked into socks into Birks especially create a person of interest.

[Giles]

As too, the cap…...

[Jett129]

I figured it was that Bengals cap that scared the Bees away.

Hahaha

@Alex Has Kira just looked at you and shook her head or wondered what she got herself into?  Hopefully your adventure went uneventful and both of your are laughing at it now.

[Alex]

Used a girder to flip the lid off

Grainy still from the video cameras 

The hive was in the lid of the pump house, so one I had flipped it off, I duck taped a can of WD40 to the girder, then taped the button down, and spayed it into the nest

Mission accomplished

[Alex]

Now time to service the pumps..

I admire your “can do “ attitude. The grainy pic looks like a Bigfoot sighting [emoji23]

Thanks, I am all good. Just a small cut, ten stitches in for a week then have them taken out in a week (no dissolvable stitches on the island)

[Weft 4 Dead]

Got a bit carried away with that workout…

[Kasi]

Oh dear, that a nasty cut.

One from Long Island before we headed over to the Bahamas - IH-634S-WH & Navy Utilitee

Dinner the other night, Kira made a cast iron pan focaccia which was unreal

Some of the local architecture

The dock at the bottom of our house. Great place for shark sightings in the evening when the sun angle is low
