THE SWARM.....

 Saturday am the bees seemed pretty active.

The next thing I knew the bees swarmed about 25" up in the oak tree by the bus.

 It was pretty precarious up on the bus on the ladder holding the box, shaking the branch and putting the lid on before carrying it down the ladder.

 two boxes latter

 I had the Queen and a bunch of bees.

Time for a relaxing dip...

A WEEKEND WITH THE GIRLS

MAY BE IT'S TIME

 Tuesday was teacher appreciation day.  Thanks, not too bad after our bomb threat on Monday.

 I hit the stream after school with Mart and Jace.  I caught one little brown and missed a few other strikes.

The dogs and I have been hitting the timber in search of mushrooms and we found this log with all kinds of oyster spawn just waiting to bust, 

 After this little cluster and a few singles

 I made an offering at the alter

and today after a long spring I finely got enough for a taste.

 Now it's time for Susie to take over.

And now it's time to finely time to enjoy!
