Day 99

This evening we worked on the floor in the bathroom. We are filling the cracks and the seams so that we will be able to paint the floor. This is the first time we used something like this. Now that we have the seams filled we will have to sand it down just a bit. But we are getting closer to a finished bathroom everyday. :D



It was also time for Jonathan's second major assault on the bees. He has been spraying them everyday that we are over there. And there are usually up to twenty bees dead on the bathroom floor the next day. We have no idea how many of them die and lay outside or still in the walls. But tonight, it was nice and cool and Jonathan decided it was time to try and take off a board or two and see if we could get a bunch of them.

Here is Jonathan with a crowbar in one hand and bee spray in the other.

We always have the kids waiting safely in the car when we do something like this. Jonathan is wearing two layers of clothes and leather gloves to keep himself safe. I stand on the ground. It feels really wrong for me to be taking pictures when I am worried about what to do if the bees do start to attack Jonathan. But it has been working out good so far.

When Jonathan came down, I could see that there were many, many bees flying around in the bathroom. But I only saw about 20-40. Jonathan said that there were 100's swarming around the light. Hopefully they all got sprayed good enough to be dead when we go back.
