I have never had the experience of
entertaining a bumble bee in my bon
net, as Lizzie did, but believe you me,
it wasn’t any pleasure to have one in
the coupe with me while I was driv
ing. For a while it looked as though
one of us would have to scoot out the
window while the other took over,
but the bee didn’t show an inclina
tion to get out. He must have de
cided he had no faith in my driving,
because he bumbled away.
