Without a sting or two or three or four. Went to move a trash can and unbeknownst to me. A paper wasp nest was under the handle. Let me up pretty good. I tolerate pain well. So it took a second or so to realize my hand was on fire.
Hand swelled up very nice. The nest and hornets I sent to the promise land.
Aahh, isn't spring and summer lovely at times.

Don't feel alone - I also always get my summer dose of stings. The worst was a couple summers ago when I was shingling my garage. I stuck my hand under the eave at the peak to get a grip and grabbed right onto a nest. (To be honest, I kinda deserved it because that was an incredibly stupid thing to do)

I just got stung yesterday, right on the knuckle of my ring finger. Normally doesn't bother me at all but that one hurt for a bit.
