On the theme of The End Times… it’s been so godawful hot lately that I can’t bring myself to put on my suit to work the bees. One of my neighbors was over last night as I put the first honey super and queen excluder on the hive:
I wonder how long it’ll be before I realize that the hive is infested with and the bees are all replaced with and rancid where the wax was.



Nice photo.
Perhaps your bees will surprise you and gift you with much honey and pleasure.
That’s just crazy talk. They’re going to swarm me, sting me in the eyes, and infect me with bee flu.
And their honey will taste like chilled castor oil and orange juice.
