It's been so long since my last post, I forgot my password. Since, let's see... May 21st... Summer happened. Summer included our 7th (omigosh 7th!) annual Creekhouse Reunion...

| I love these people. |
 |
| Loved 'em back in 2007, too. |
There was also a road trip to Texas, including giant catfish...
And of course a bountiful garden, complete with busy bees.
 |
| 2 new beds! But for whatever reason *cough*neglect*cough the squash and cukes planted there did not really thrive. |
 |
| Just before we put the second tier of frames on. June? |
The bees have been fun. They're mostly sweet, docile ladies -- no stings except those two when we deserved them. No honey yet... we ought to have checked on them by now to see what they've done up top, but we haven't. I figure they've capped enough honey to make it through the winter on the bottom box. We probably won't harvest all of the top this first year b/c I really want to make sure they survive the colder months, but we may get in there and explore this weekend. I'll let you know. Maybe :). If I post again before next spring.
