The Girls Are Here!
Date posted: April 20, 2009
After a VERY busy day on Saturday the bees(girls) are finally in their home! The second I woke up I was scrambling to get things built for the bees. I still hadn’t finished the hive stand, which also needed to be set in the ground with concrete.
In addition to that I was helping Sue install her bees. That was pretty fun to see how nervous she was during the install. But she did it all like I knew she would, like a champ.
Kirk, Stephanie, Jessica and Hugh were down visiting so they got to get in on all the action.
There was only one casualty during the whole process; Mary got stung on her thumb! Ouch!

I hope things go better with your hives this year.
