Still Here
April 18, 2015
Spring is upon us, and I’m behind (as usual.)
But contrary to all appearances, I’m actually still here, still trying new things and still full of intentions to make a better effort in posting updates this season.
The order of business today (a break in the rain for most of the day was a welcome ls development not to be wasted) included finishing and situating a Kenyan style top bar beehive and a little tomato cage sorting and repairing.
I pick my bees next week.
Yikes.

Hello! I’ve missed you through the cold winter. I’m looking forward to the magic you create this summer. 😎
Thank you M 🙂
Glad you’re back. I’ve never seen a hive like that before.
We had a tragic incident involving millions of bees near Seattle this week, http://www.komonews.com/news/local/Millions-of-bees-swarm-I-5-in-Lynnwood-as-bee-truck-crashes-300280101.html. Firefighters sprayed foam on some of the crashed hives for safety reasons, killing untold numbers of them.
That’s pretty bad…. Plus, an apple orchard or 10 won’t be sufficiently pollinated now.
Glad to see your post. I was beginning to worry. Hope you have a good season and I’m looking forward to seeing updates on the bees.
Thank you,
Actually life is good, just busy, so the “short” break lasted much longer than intended. 😉
