Any umbrella will do. ;-) I'd recommend a golf umbrella personally. They
are a LOT larger and easy to find.

Om, I have a couple of golf umbrellas; frankly, I can hardly pick them up,
let alone open one --

I could be mistaken. :-)

No, it was Sigmund Freud.


Wasn't it " A good cigar is a smoke."

Was it Frankenstein who said "Smoke, good!"

I just use bug repellant, but I like your idea better!
You could just get a beekeepers outfit!

You're right. I inherited this problem, I guess. The day my sister was
born, my dad had been taking honey out of the hives. His face was so
swollen that they wouldn't let him in the hospital to see mother and child.
I don't know if he did get in or not -- this is the story they tell.

So the beekeepers outfit remark give me a laugh. :-))

That must be one HUGE golf Umbrella!
The ones they sell here are only about twice the size of a rain umbrella.

Ok.

The bamboo and paper ones are unusually light.

Of course you could always hunt for one of those giant Sombreros with
the 36" brim. :-)
