We've got ants this summer, again.
Little ones, tiny, smaller-than-a-breadcrumb things that just keep coming!
One of my kids reports that my wife, having cleared out the space under the kitchen sink, was sitting in front of the open door, with a flashlight, staring into the open space.
"Making battle plans against the ants?" she asked.
"Oh, yeah!" was the reply.

About Me
- Brian H. Gill
- I'm sixty-something. My wife and I have six kids, four surviving, and one grandchild so far. A central Minnesota town home has been my home for the last few decades. My wife's a 'cradle Catholic,' I became Catholic as an adult. I take my faith seriously, but not grimly. I mostly read, write and make the occasional digital picture. Not necessarily in that order.
