I remember one in the early 70's in my area in December near Christmas, I don't remember the extent just that we had no school and the trees in our yard were iced up pretty good,
I dug a Rhody and gave it to my brother, we planted it at his house and no matter how much watering we did it looked like it died, the next year it came back to life, I was surprised I thought it was dead for good.
Price in Maine where I was Tuesday was $5.99 lb, we stopped at a restaurant and I asked how much for the 1 1/4 lb boiled lobster and it was $52, I passed.
I'll be up in Maine tomorrow, gonna check the prices of the guy in Kittery and maybe pick a few up. Going for stripers in the morning although I hear the blues are hitting, maybe I get lucky.
I get one at least every year, I try and inspect the house weekly to get them before they get big. When they get big I get a can of wasp spray and wait til a cooler night and spray it, those cans shoot 30 feet and I usually dump the whole can on the nest and saturate it.
