UGH! The March winds are rearing their ugly heads today. The roaring sound is relentless, the phrase wind-blown is in effect, and my hair is tousled, to say the least. The twenty-seven mile per hour winds are wrecking havoc on my bee adventures and I am not happy about it. There are bee affairs […]
Dreamy Days
With our warmer weather, windy March days, blossoms bursting out all over the place, birds nesting, and bees buzzing I’ve been dreamin’ of lazy summer days. Not that I wish to pass over spring – I do not! Right now Miss T and I are on spring break from school. It’s just the precursor to […]

Crafty Little Creatures
Yesterday was a new adventure for me in the skills of beekeeping. For the first time I was able to open my hive, without Mr. Floyd’s presence. He’d said, “you ‘ll need to do it by yourself sometime…”. What he didn’t know is, I’ve been keen for this opportunity ever since my girls moved in. […]

I Say Tomato You Say Tomato
Do you say tomato or toe-mah-toe? I say tomato and with that said, I’ve been pondering the change of seasons. It is upon us, spring that is. I’m feeling the need to move forward as the clocks will be moving forward this weekend, a true sign of the season change. Not to mention dandelions, peach […]
Peach Honey
Here I am, day 2 of my new adventure. This morning was drizzly, cool and windy, again not the most favorable weather for my bees. I didn’t even walk out to the bee yard to check on them. As a matter of fact they don’t need to be checked on everyday. This afternoon however, the […]
Peach Honey
Today I observed my bees foraging in the peach blossoms. It was quite a sight. Please go to the “Bees & Honey” page-Bee School 101-Peach Honey for some photos and a little bee lesson. Enjoy!
An Exciting Day
My bees have arrived! My excitement level has been high today. I’m feeling a little more calm now that they are settled and I believe I will be able to tell you a little about the day. This morning I was pretty anxious waiting for my bees to be delivered. The weather was not cooperating […]
