Frozen Tundra
« on: January 04, 2015, 08:27:14 pm »
Greetings fellow bee keepers.  I’ve been keeping bees for a few years in Michigan and I’ve got a sustainable bee yard at this point, but there are always new ideas to entertain and questions to ask.  Its good to have a source of bee keepers around. :eusa_clap:  While I think I’ve just about got my bees figured out, I'm still working on the bee keepers. :)

 :welcome:
First of all, a hearty Welcome. This is a friendly place to hang out. We have some beeks here that are in your area I'm pretty sure.
As far as figuring out beekeepers, well................good luck with that!  :laugh:

Greetings and welcome on joining this forum.  With a moniker like LogicalBee, it sounds like you should be in a position to help us all understand this interest we share in bees and beekeeping.  There's plenty of logic involved---but also, unfortunately, a lot of things we observe seem to have no logic to them at all.  We can understand beees, yet still be astounded by some of the "UnlogicalBee" things they do.  It should be  nice, sharing those experiences with you on our side.  :) :welcome:

Welcome LogicalBee!  Think I know what you're experiencing.  It's -6 F here in Minnesota.  Had to thaw a few things out in the house today after thawing out a few things on myself... :D
I always stand behind my work...
It makes me harder to find.

Yep, when you have to break it off in sticks, it's cold.   :o   :yes:
