    Not sure how I missed this, but hey better late than never! I’m running 3 hives at the moment - all Italians: a 30’ish frame long langstroth, an 8 frame langstroth, and a 5 frame nuc I started and happy to say has a laying queen as of last week. Assuming they survive the winter, I plan on moving the nuc (maybe splitting, we’ll see) over to a Warré hive that I’m working on.



  • I’ve been getting into beekeeping so I’m soaking up as much info as I can. Just finished up Honey Bee Democracy by Tom Seeley. Fantastically interesting book regarding honey bee swarm preferences and decision making. Next up is an English translation of Beekeeping for All by Émile Warré, mostly because I want to read his thoughts on his hive style and management practices.





  • North Georgia here. Wife and I have been up to visit friends near Seattle a few times with another trip planned this year. We. Love. It. Being so close to so many proper mountains is just such a breathtaking thing that we don’t really have where we are. Don’t get me wrong, the Appalachians are nice, but we were just in awe seeing Mount Rainier above the clouds during our first flight in to the area.
