My appologies if these photos take up to much band width please feel free to edit to acceptable size.

You should better to mark hives with some colors that bees find their home. A man can calculate 5 and 6 is difficult to find out.
You see that bee is not so wise.
you can also put them 3 + 2 groups, not in one row.

Guess you found a place for your photos and figured out how to post.

Thanks Finsky I have been thinking about breaking them up to 2's and 3's. I also saw where it was recomended that instead of a straight line boxes should be placed in a semi circle to reduce drifting. I have another spot to put hives, I just need to fix it up a little.
Yea Robo. Growing up on the internet. I figured out how to post a picture finally. I also frequent a salt water fly fishing forum so picture posting is a skill that was long over due. Thanks for your offer to post for me though much appreciated.

Good! Sun direction is important to bees 2+1+2 east - south - west.
Also direction to north is as good. Only it is important that sun is shining to walls.
And more space around hive that you can work there.
