marty cassidy Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 We are making a B Line (why do they call it a B Line?) to Bushnell. Left Raccoon Valley this AM and wound up at one of our When bees discover a particularly rich source of food, they make a "bee line" back to their hive, where they do their dance alerting their compatriots to the discovery. Bee hunters in woods way back then watched for bees making this flight, which led them, in turn, to sources of honey. As you know from running around in this area, sugar sources other than honey were non-existent. See "The Bee Hunter" by James Fenimore Cooper for how this worked. You're making a bee line to your home, your place. The shortest possible distance you can come up with. When you get there, you must wave your arms, shake your hips, and turn around in place for twenty times to tell everyone where the food is. If you are wrong, you will be killed by your disappointed compatriots. 2007 Arctic Fox Fifth Wheel 2007 Chevy Silverado 2500HD (Green) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lelandschliep Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 Wow, looks like it might be time to get out of this area. Tomorrow's high is supposed to be 43. Maybe I'll find some inside things to do. Like sit on the heater all day. We think we're going to get out of here in about 10 days. To Pendleton Or. first.

homenomore Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 I guess everyone that was at the escapade is still there? havent seen any updates so I'm thinking everyone is in stealth mode.. We are in Wisconsin in the rain and cool air. Will start to head south Thursday. Looks like no big storms brewing in the gulf so maybe Joe, Marcia and the other skips haven't left port.
