Heri I live in an area where wasp nests are a big problem. The best sootiuln is to buy wasp killer its pretty cheap, about $ 3-4 a can.. depending on where the wasp nest is located, you can buy a spray bottle or a projector spray that reaches about 20ft. When the sun goes down and all the wasps return to the nest, spray like hell! In the morning if you still see wasps flying around, wait until night and spray again. Keep this up until you don't see anymore wasps, then give it a day or two more with more spraying to make sure the larvae were also killed. Once they're dead, you can knock it down with a hose that has a pistol attachment, or whatever does the job =pIf you don't want to kill the nest, then I suggest you do what the local residents around here do. Get a pair of easy to use pruning clippers, or something that wont give you a hassle to use quickly. Put on some long sleeved clothing and a sun hat with netting on it (you can buy netting at a fabric store for as cheap as 70 cents a yard, whatever you need to cover your face..like a beekeepers hat), wait until dark when all the wasps have returned to the hive. Put a tub (plastic locking tub is best, or whatever has mesh fine enough so they wasps wont fly through)under the nest and clip the top. When the nest falls in shut it quickly.Wasps release pheromones when threatened, and it starts a chain reaction, so if one gets out and attacks you, I suggest you wait until the next night.

tamara I was imagining you in Bangalore! How nice to be in Mussoorie. My patrnes honeymooned for a month in Nainital and other places but we never visited again. Is that where your nephew will be residing or just the venue of the wedding? Either way, sounds wonderful. Does Shane look like a McMahon?Looking forward to pics, like everyone else!Carol McFarlane

Fontes Apr13 Phil Stefani's 437 Rush can be found at the corner of Rush and Hubbard Streets. It's a bit tueckd away, especially because of current construction on the Michigan Ave. walkway above, but it is well worth the search. Cabbies know how to find us, and if you're driving we offer valet for only $11 so you won't have to worry about parking. Here is a link to 437 Rush. We hope you dine with us soon.

Rajath What a wonderful photo! Hubby and I renlctey watched an episode of Gordon Ramsay (he was helping out the owners of an Indian restaurant) -- there were some sort of steel containers which were used for take-away lunches (apparently these containers are common in India). What a WONDERFUL idea they were... they reminded me of an army mess kit.

Guilherme ashram stay is free of cost. There is no fixed tariff and you can dontae according to your will before leaving the place. Plus there are two meals a day and afternoon/morning tea that is provided for free. The people are very good and hospitable too.The ashram is very peaceful and right on the bank of the Ganges. Its clean, silent and the great views of the mountain with the Ganga river flowing alongside make for a very nice retreat if you are looking for a quiet place in the town.Wish you a happy trip

Aqeeb Natalia K - Those top two cards look like they would actually be fun and ralely simple to stitch. Hmmm, I've been looking for a good cross-stitching project even bought a pattern online a while ago that's just way too complicated to start right now cause I'll never finish.

Melissa I really agree with your views There is close rtleaion between Dynamic Content & Page Ranking. Content is King. Better the content better the ranking. If content keep updating and changing dynamically then it becomes responsibility of search engine to keep update itself , and keep re-visiting . This makes the presence of the website more visible in the web. It is CMS which provides dynamicity to the website. And hence it plays important role in Net Marketing Shyam Chopra

Verla Boesch Hi Alyssa, Your time has gone by in a hurry. Probably because you have been busy there, and we have been equally busy here. It seems like there are so many things going on right now. I am trying to get things lined up for Bible School which will be June 23-27 this year. We have a meeting on Monday night. We had a wonderful rain yesterday-about and inch and a third. It was needed badly, as the ground had gotten so hard. Rod finished his planting on Tuesday, so the rain will be good for the crops. I heard you went hiking with flip-flops. That must have been hard on your feet. I remember wearing high heels when we went to the top of a mountain in Austria when grandpa was in the service. I didn't know where we were going that day, and that's where we ended. Needless to say, I was hearing a lot of comments from the natives about the American in high heels!! Most of it was in German, but I understood enough to get the drift. However, we didn't hike, we rode a cable car to the top. I'm sure we won't be at your graduation. I wish we could be, but airline tickets and hotels are just out of line now and especially for such a short trip. I guess we will be "dog sitting" during that time. Not just one dog, but two!! Becky Shouts was to keep Dana's dog while they went to Branson and now she can't keep him all week, so Dana asked if I would keep him a couple days. After I said "yes", your dad reminded me we would have Greta too. Greta does NOT like Miken-that was quite obvious on Memorial Day, so I don't know what will happen. I may have to send her with grandpa during the day and stay at your folks with her at night. Well, I better get going here. I have made a scrape book of all of your letters and pictures. Thanks for keeping us posted. Love, Grandma B

Verla Boesch Hi Alyssa, Sounds like you had another busy week. Your dad said you would be up in the Himalyas some place this weekend. Hope everything went OK. I will have family in on Memorial Day for a hamburger fry. (whoever can come.) Bri is working, I guess, and Heather and Eric aren't coming until next week. Jay was in church today. Paulette brought him and they stayed for lunch. That always makes Jay happy. We plan to cut off the ends of two pews, so there will be a place for his wheel chair. We had our day at Ridge School on Wednesday, and it went so well. It was a beautiful day. We had the fourths grades from Maple River. Ruth Lemmon and Mrs. Howieson's classes and one other teacher. There were about 40 children, and we took them through what a day in country school was like. Two of the little girls even came with long dresses, bonnets and high top shoes. Fun! Grandpa had his cataract surgery on Thursday and that went well. Now when he gets his lens changed, his vision should be pretty good. Hope your friend is feeling better. I worried about a parasite when you were sick, as that is a common occurence from bad water, and it often takes months to get completely cured. We will keep her in our prayers. Joe Obermeyer is planning to go into seminary at Dubuque if he is accepted. I know it will be a real challenge for him, but he is so eager to do this, so hope the Presbytery doesn't block his efforts. I better close for now. Take care and hope you will be back in the US soon. Love, Grandpa and Grandma B

Verla Boesch Hi Alyssa, It looks like you were in the "Land Of Monkeys" the last two weeks. It must seem strange to have them running wild all over. I enjoyed all your pictures, but think you should have by-passed the swimming in the river. It looked pretty muddy, and I'm sure you found that out. Did anyone else get sick? We have had some dry weather for a change. It is quite windy today, so doesn't feel as warm as they say it is. Yesterday I helped the Community Club plant trees and flowers along the highway in town and out by Syngenta where Les always has flowers. I couldn't stay until they got done, as I had to be at church to help with Russ Garlick's memorial service. It was really a large one. We served over 160 people including the kitchen help. There were so many lovely flowers at the front of the chruch. They paid to have Arlyn Lloyd fly up from Texas to do the service, as he had done Russ's wife's service 9 years ago. Bev was gone anyway, so it all worked out well, and Arlyn did a good job. Skye was alone in church today, as your mom and Dad were in Windom. Your Mom had to moderate a meeting there. I guess they are in the process of getting a new pastor too. Your dad plowed our garden on Saturday, but I said it was too windy to stand out there and plant today. However, next week will be a busy one too, so maybe I will regret not having done it today. Thanks again for keeping us all up to date. Love, Grandma B

Verla Boesch Hi Alyssa, I hadn't heard about the bombings yet, so guess it's good I got your message first. Grandpa had surgery on his face this morning for another squamous cell cancer. He hasn't had one like that for a long time. They did about a two inch or more incisions, so it took about an hour for the entire proceedure. They told me to come in too, so I watched him do the operation. He is supposed to rest for two days, but I don't think that will happen, as he already is at the office. Since we left at nine AM, I haven't heard much news. I think it's a good idea that you don't venture into that area. We have heard so much about the earthquake in china and the cyclone in what was formerly Burma. Your dad said you weren't aware of that. I wondered how close you were to the earthquake. Glad you are feeling better. I hope if you have a reoccurence, you will use the perscription medicine. It is a very nice day today, and is supposed to be dry for a few days now. Rod went to New Market with Cindy, as he wants to let the ground he worked yesterday at Jim's get a little dryer. Take care and be careful. Love, Grandma B
