I thought that I would keep the number of colonies of my own to about 20 or 25. Well I am wrong again. No one wants me to get out of beekeeping. A friend of mine has put 38 swarms in my old equipment, so now I am back up in the 80's. I have never seen bees swarm as much as they are at present in southwest Virginia. I know of about 60 swarms that have been put in hives. Some of this years swarms have swarmed. I am getting too old for this much work.

I always let him use my extracting equipment, so he doesn't want me to get out of beekeeping.
