It's Midnight in the Van - What's that SMELL?

We thought we made it through all the smelly farm feed lots relatively unscathed. Thanks to Rafiel's quick response, he could usually close off the vents quickly enough so we wouldn't smell the "cow smell" at full force.


Then lo and behold we are just about to Yates Center, KS and Rafiel kills a stink bug. For those of you who don't know what a stink bug is, they (as the name would imply)...stink. But they only stink when they are squished. Rafiel didn't know this was a stink bug until it was too late. Stink bug: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentatomidae

"It smells like bad foot stink!" - Rafiel

"Damn." - Ryan

I got the giggles so badly that I didn't have a comment so decided to blog instead. The smell is starting to discipate but wow - that was bad!
