Bumblebee Baseball

The kids are on spring break and there is no soccer game this week, so we spent a good part of the day playing one of the games from my childhood - bumblebee baseball. The game is simple - you try to whack the bumblebees that are constantly diving and trying to attack you with whatever implement of desctruction you choose. Here we are using canoe paddles - though this does work much better with tennis rackets. Ahhh! a nice relaxing day at home. (for those of you worried about the bees - I was planning to wipe them out with Orthene as they ruin the cedar on my house - but this is somehow more sporting...)
