Bill, I have learned that Carnola  Honey is prone to sugar-fying. I have also learned that Palomino honey will be high in moisture content, and many times will need to be dried before extraction. My question to you; Does Palomino Honey also Sugar-fie easily?  (Just curious) I have  neither in my area.

Jim, I have had a very busy day. I have checked in to Beemaster off and on but never really dig into most of the post, which were >plenty< today. I just now read this one.

I am so sorry for your losses. The best I know to say Jim, is God Bless You. God Bless Judy, Wesley, and family. . You are >so generous< in giving to your community. It is my prayer that God >himself< will bless you in his way by his hand.

Sincerely,
Phillip

Saw palmetto is almost ready. Tallow is on, but a little kink due to the rain yesterday. I can use a couple kinks/setbacks this year.

So if the bees are alive when returned to the hive, what does that really mean, unless you marked them, tagged them and actually knew how old they were before being returned?

Come on guys/gals think about it.

Thanks Les and Max.
Still no power here. Still cutting trees off fences. That will be going on for a few more days and repairing fences.
All and all we were very lucky.

Very sorry to see all this damage.
On my outyards I keep straps on - just in case.
Wish we could do the same with our homes.

I have 3 tress I would like to take down.
It has been so wet here and I can't get anybody to lend a hand.
I keep all trees well away from our place now.
All the best to you and family
