Glad to see some of you younger whipper snappers getting started. This dilapidated old coot is wearing down fast.

Iddee, I can relate. I'm feeling pretty banged up already and the season has barely started. Ain't gettin' any younger on this end.

No swarms here yet, but the temps are susposed to be hitting around the 80 mark for the next several days. That should get the girls out and really flying.
