I am just getting back into beekeeping after a 20 year hiatus. I kept bees for a few years in the late 90?s but gave it up when life got too busy. I kept most of my equipment against the day when I retired and had more time to spend on the bees. Newly retired now so I have no more excuses! Much has changed in beekeeping since I did it (mites now on the Island, foundationless vs foundation debate, etc.) but one change that I love is an online community like this for help and info. I look forward to spending time on here.
Cheers!
