Joann asked me the other day if I missed the Palmetto Bugs we had in Florida. My reply was "no".  We have all kind of bugs up here but no Palmetto Bugs.  I would guess it is too cold for them.Â
I remember one time my Dad had invited all his friends that he had met at Al Lang Field during Spring Training Games for dinner.  My Husband Fred made a pot of pasta sauce and we had a delicious spaghetti dinner. My Dad did not like pasta {can you believe someone does not like pasta}? Anyway, he had a frozen dinner.Â
Well, everyone was around the table and I had forgotten to put napkins out.  I opened the cabinet above the wall oven and there were five Palmetto Bugs running around on the inside of the door.  I hurried up closed the door and looked around to see 6 pair of eyes staring at the cabinet.  Everyone there knew about these pests so we just sat down and ate our dinner. The next day I called the Pest Control folks and out they came and got rid of those five and who knows how many more.  They came by once a month and the bugs had to find another place to invade.
While I am going down memory lane I think tomorrow I will tell you about the sidewalks in front of our home on the Southside.

Love and prayers from here to there
