My wife warned me about them, and we were driving down in the RV.<BR/><BR/>We stopped and bought a 'lovebug' net (not really called that, but you get the idea) and attached it to the front of the RV.<BR/><BR/>Kept most of the goo from getting into the radiator, but I kept a few gallons of window washer fluid handy to refill the washer as needed.<BR/><BR/>That's one thing I do not envy about Southern living.Reformed Catholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15582319442292078422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11496473.post-39611062065853049052008-09-08T14:49:00.000-05:002008-09-08T14:49:00.000-05:00Ewww!

After unlocking and opening the door, the giant cockroach sitting on the toilet, reading the newspaper looked at me and said "Do you mind?". I have since always been most respectful of Texas wildlife. In all forms.
