Well, here it is oh-six-hundred, and I just got in
from doing some dawn-patrol weed-eater work around
the wooden barracks of the "84th through 121st aerial
reconnaissance squadrons" before their first sorties
of the day.

If you get up early enough, you can cut by the dawn's
early light, and enjoy the cooler temperatures, certain
that the bees are not yet foraging.  Waiting until dusk
is an option for those who don't remember what a sunrise
looks like.

Of course, you might trip and fall if it is still too dark,
not a good idea with a running weed-eater or lawn mower.

...would such a fall be "brake-dancing" for bees?
