Rudy,
How are things?
So far my 2 hives are doing ok. My weaker one has a small cluster, but I saw the undertakers had left a few bodies on the landing board on both hives, so they are alive. I did put this one on top of the stronger one and I have straw bales around them for insulation (in case it gets cold like last winter). I may add a super if honey to each one "just in case" in January. I would like to remove any empty boxes if at all possible, but not sure if it will be warm enough to try that any time soon.
