Neat surprise today.
« on: July 08, 2017, 10:21:50 pm »
The wife and I went to pick up some bee keeping equipment a guy had stored for a couple of years. We get there and are looking at the equipment when my wife points out a football sized swarm hanging in a tree. The guys says if you feel like getting them there yours. He even donated the bucket and let me use his ladder. After as we are getting that one, my wife points out another one several hundred fee away. We came home with both. And the equipment. It was a good day in North Georgia.

Keep that wife.  Lololol
Bought my first NUC April 7, 2016.
Like all you when you first started, I am fascinated with beginning Beekeeping and trying to learn all I can.
I retired May 2015 and have added this to my short list of hobbies.

Also please excuse the typos.  My iPad autocorrect can be brutal.
