I enjoy it very much and I can make a living doing what I enjoy.Yesterday my brother said to me on the phone: So, are you planning to go commercial with your bees?
No.
Are you in it for the honey then?
No.
Then why do you do it?
It's challenging.

That's true! That's the one I'm using next time. "It's like keeping fish. They're fun to watch."Is keeping bees any more odd then having an aquarium of fish? I mean, yes, beekeeping is more challenging, but conceptually, kind of similar no?
