Title: My New Website
Post by: JP on July 09, 2012, 06:34:19 pm
I worked long and hard on this site folks! One of my customer's who I removed a hive for four years ago helped me with my pest company's site and with this site. I've been working on this one since May and finally have it where I want it. I aired the site today so it is now active.

What's really cool is I have admin rights to the site and can edit just about anything any time I like.

Lots of pics and videos and links to some of my favorite sites, including Beemaster and Bushkill as well as Iddee's site Bee Keeping forums.

Throw me some feedback if you like.

Thanks!

I like it.  One thing I like the best is that the website captures who you are very accurately.  From getting to know you and call you "friend", Ultimate Friend even  :-D, I can tell that you and your designer spent a lot of time in the building of the site.  You should be very proud of it. Congratulations.

Thanks guys. I will be tweaking it some soon. Will be adding Linda T's (Tillie's) blog and another one or two other links. Will be adding a few more videos and at least one more tree removal slide show. Going to look through my videos with Schawee and have at least one "Bickering Bee keeper's video, maybe a few.

Thanks G! I worked hard on it, had to transfer a lot of pics from my other computer going from an old Gateway to my Mac. The guy who helped me's basic set up is very well organized. Once I had a good idea of how things related to each other it all started to fall in place. He wrote all the programs and has a great way of explaining how things relate to each other. It was quite a bit of work but a lot of fun to put together.

Love the site JP. I didn't realise that you had hives at so many sites and I found this very interesting seeing all the varieties you get to harvest. You'll need more than one video of the bickering beekeepers and maybe one of Schawee downing a milkshake!

JP called me and told me about the website and said I should look at the tab about the red umbrella. I am so honored by this mention of the red umbrella and the story how he obtained it.  Also love that photo of JP with his back to us holding the umbrella.

It is a wonderful website with all the fabulous videos that JP has done. All in one place which makes it easy to navigate around and view them all.

I wish you all the luck in the world and hope and pray you get the recognition you deserve for all the time and effort you gave educating so many beekeepers. You have given me so much confidence, way more than I ever had when I began beekeeping.

Thank you JP
Annette

Hey, its whatever Ms Annette wants to call it!  :-D

Danno the sauerkraut king. Has a nice ring to it!  :-D

I can just see it now,neighbors down the street are having a cook out grillin' and chillin' but the dogs come off the grill and everyone's asking for sauerkraut but there isn't any!

The horror!

But wait! The sauerkraut king lives just down the street!

And saves the day!  :-D

No hurricane problems here - it hardly rained - , but I keep reading about beekeepers who lost hives on the coast.

Hope to see you in person again one of these days.

Nice web site JP. Thank GOD your old buddy Bruce is doing well after his ordeal. The videos you guys made together are some of my favorites and they just would not have been the same without both of your wise crack personalites working together.

Thanks Sparky! I do miss removing bees with my buddy and I'm so happy he is healing up as quickly as he is. That dang German Cajun is one tough son of a gun!

Linda, hopefully next time we meet up, my wife will be with me. I just know you two would hit it off. Brendhan has hinted a few times that one of these days he'll bring us all back down for another conference. (Fingers crossed). That was a great time!

We had rain and thunder boomers for 2 weeks solid. we had 12 inches total in one week here on the west side of gray. I have a NOAA aproved weather station set on the roof of the house. infact just labor day we had 1 & 1/2 inches in about 2hours. I'm ready for a break here. My friend just across gray hwy. (state route 22) just got a trickle. he is only about 2 miles away as the crow flies.

Hey Lazy, I was in Brookhaven the last few days. Ran into a fellow named Fitzpatrick. He keeps bees in Crystal Springs, his son keeps them in Brandon. We had a good talk in the Walmart parking lot exchanging stories, nice fellow.

When I pulled up to my property Sunday evening my bees were doing orientation flights. Goldenrod in full bloom on my property and the surrounding area. I imagine yours should be smelling like sweaty socks as well.  :-D

Love your web site. Over the last week I have watched several of your Youtube videos on removing swarms so it is great to have them all in the one spot!  Congratulations on the production of those - great entertainment but also educational value. You amaze me how you handle the bees without a veil!!

Can't wait to check out your website.  Have sure enjoyed your youtube videos.  Very entertaining and educational.  It's funny you were talking about homemade sour kraut.  My Grandfather-in-law got me into beekeeping out near Possum Kingdome Lake west of Ft Worth.  Not only did he have great Mesquite honey but made his own kraut.  Man it was good.  Hand made his hives and hand squeezed the combs.  Memories I loved it.

Hey Twin, yeah we talk about sauerkraut on this site! We have a few few kraut aficionados that make their own, me I just talk about it.  :-D
