One evening, Noah spied a scorpion in the bathroom next to our bedrooms....and even managed to take a picture of it before it scampered into the safety of a crack in the wall. So, once this was broadcast, there was much concern over this little creature lurking about. I, in my ignorance
about scorpions, wasn't too worried. I figured if I saw it, I could squish it ... and if I didn't see it, it wasn't a problem. One of the staff assured everyone that this kind wasn't poisonous and at worst it would feel like a bee sting. So, I went to bed - Terry was already half-asleep, when I heard Shelley and Terence in the next room discussing scorpions. I said to Terry that some people might not be able to sleep knowing the scorpion was still on the loose and he mumbled that he had already killed it! It had been crawling beside our bed and he had hit it with his shoe! So, I went and shared the good news with our neighbors and we all slept happily ever after. Linette
