Hornet Nest

I thought you guys might find this interesting.

I went to look at an REO property a few days ago. It looked great on paper and was in a decent neighborhood. It had been on the market for a bit, so I was curious why someone had not snapped it up yet.

When I got there I made my way to the front porch, only to discover a giant hornets nest hanging right over the front door from the porch roof. I mean this thing was huge, about the size of a really, really big pumpkin.

I couldn't get anywhere close to the lockbox to get in. As soon as I made a few steps toward the door about a dozen hornets started flying out.

Maybe this is why the house has been vacant for so long. Nobody can get in to see it!
