[QUOTE="beefmasters, post: 1270071, member: 6758"] When i was a young boy of about 8(about a half century ago) an older cousin and myself were out horse back riding.It was hot summer time and we had ended up down in some pretty brushy woods,briars etc.We decided to get out of our situation by going up a pretty good hill that was covered in trees and brush. It got so thick we decided it would be best to get off of the horses and lead them up the hill instead of fighting the brush.The older cousin and his horse led the way with me following close behind.I never did know if the nest was on a bush or down in the leaves but he apparently hit the nest and with me behind the yellow jackets swarmed me. We were not far from the top of the hill at the time and believe you me i was stepping pretty high when i reached the clearing.I had also let go of the reins to my horse and left him in the dust.Can't remember if the poor horse was stung or not. My cousin counted six stings to my head mostly on top of my head.I can still remember sitting in the heat beside some cactus and my head swimming so badly i couldn't stand up.It was quite some time before i felt able to make it home. Oh, the good old days. :lol: [/QUOTE]
