I know I should feel relieved that no one got stung ... seeing as how this hornets' nest was within a few feet of the place I've been parking my car (not to mention loading and unloading the kids) at the new house.

But the fact that we potentially killed off thousands of its inhabitants with only two cans of some wasp-be-gone type pesticide makes me feel a little remorseful.
