Old Folks At Home (Bees!)
Here is our newly painted hive awaiting arrival of Her Royal Highness, along with 10,000 or so faithful servants.
They actually come in the mail, believe it or not!
That's right, I used a lopped off black cherry tree trunk for the front foundation. Yes, I strive to do something different in all that I do. It's sort of like a personal moral code or something.
I'm sure there will be photos and stories a-plenty regarding our exploits with the bee queendom to share as soon as they make their grand entrance to our farm.

The priest who is marrying us next weekend is also a bee keeper, and gave us some of his honey to bring home. He also had us sampling honey from australia and other exotic places which at first was delicious, but then gave me a bellyache. But anyway- if you need any tips on the bees, he is your guy!
