I went to West Virginia at 4 yrs oldl to visit my dads side of the family on the potato farm.

I crawled into a little opening outside of the barn and heard the hummming noise but it didn't dawn on me what it was cuz I saw a little kitten and I was trying to call it to me. It was so cute...

Anyway, I bumped my head lightly on this "thing" attached to the side of the opening... and learned the hard way that it was a HUGE WASP NEST.

Hundreds of them stinging me brutally over and over and over and over and I was screaming and no one would come close enough to me to save me (nice eh?) so my whole family was screaming for me to "Jump in the crick Jump in the crick!!" so I submerged myself into the 8 inch deep creek between the barn and the house and held my breath as long as I could till most of them went away.

I still remember being scared to death of water but far more scared of the repeating agony of burning ass stings all over my body. It was pure hell. Good thing I wasn't allergic either cuz we were over a hundred miles from the nearest hospital way out in the hills.

Probably the most vivd and frightening memory I have as being a little girl.
