Nice piece about the guy who comes to look at your hives.

Sincerely,

Ha, the coolest thing that I saw here was how he was looking into the colony with absolutely no protection.  I take my hat off to this guy.    That is what I want to be able to accomplish this year, nothing, not even a veil.  But I think I will put cotton batton in my ears, after having a bee go in my ear last year, that is my vulnerable spot!!!  Beautiful day, beautiful life.  Love life.  Cindi

Tim is a great person. He has been president of NJBA, as well as the South Jersey Branch for many years. A few of the forum mebers have had a chance to meet him at my house recently too. He is not big brother, but an emissary for beekeeping. Whether you have one hive, or thousands. I missed the article, so thanx understudy. I have never seen tim wear any gear. I rarely do, but I always smok'em.  He will be a huge asset to NJ beeks for sure. I can honestly say that if someone else was running the bee club, I probably would have wlaked away after one year. Now I am involved more than I ever thought I would . I thought I would poke my head in, learn, and move on.

I wish we had someone like that over here in California. Someone who could come on over and check the hive to see if everything is OK.  Without my bee forum members here, I would be totally lost.
