Call me Hercules

Remember the story of Hercules? One of the tasks that he was given was to kill the Hydra. Every time he cut off a head, 3 more would grow. That is the way with flies in this house. You go on a rampage, kill about15 flies, you don't see any more, you think you got them all. 5 minutes later, they are BACK!!!

What Hercules finally did, was burn the stumps. So if you see a nice bonfire by our house, you know what happened.

On a side note, Prom is tomorrow. Juniors do not have school since we took the ACT! Naturally, I am not going to prom. Here are some more of the pictures from the Hole 'n the Wall. Of course, I am leaving off some really great pictures for the sake of size. In one of the pictures, I was in our room (2 stories) sitting on a beam overlooking the bottom of the room. It was a really nice (though not enough beds). The two adorable kids in the picture are Jolee (cute but bossy) and Ethan (just cute). I believe that they are both four. There is a picture of my dad and his siblings (and his mother).

Very nice way of describing the fly problem:) After 8 years of practice, I believe I am VERY good at my aim with a fly swatter. You being a good batter should catch on quick. I didn't see the songs on teacher tube, but I'll ask my teacher when he'll put them on.

I like the fly metaphor. Jolee and Ethan. Little terrors the both of them.
