Don't really have a locust problem here, but LOVEBUG season has started. Either way keep your lips closed!

Had those dam love bugs entering my nasal cavity last week end, a couple of times. I guess College Station is to far north for them. I had a run to Katy last week.

I ride if they're out and I wear a helmet with a face shield to keep them off of my face. It's called common sense.

Here it's the June bugs. A hard little beetle about half to three quarter inch long. Thank God for windshields!
