Corona virus

This, too, shall pass. In the meantime, getting delivery times from the various hopping services is getting to be like winning some sort of minor lottery. I can plan well enough that I usually don't mind waiting, but not even knowing if it's going to happen or not in the next few days is a bit frustrating.

I know, I'm waiting on some things to be delivered. I'm now told it will be a couple more weeks cause they're not "essential" items in their opinion. But taking my money, as always, happened immediately.

That's an outstanding porch.

Cicada Killers have been here for a while. The Japanese Giant Hornet though (not sure why they're calling it the Asian hornet) aggressively preys on bees. The people getting stung is unfortunate, but statistically kind of low risk. But they seek out bee hives and 50 hornets can destroy a bee hive of 50k bees in minutes.
