Hey, over here! It's me!
« on: December 11, 2013, 08:34:52 am »
You can run, but you can't hide!  I found you!  I see a lot of familiar names here.  Some of you may know me as srvfantexasflood.  I decided new forum, new ID.  
I've been keeping bees since 2008, so compared to most of you, I am a beginner.  My interest in bees grew out of my lifelong gardening and nature interests.  I am currently the secretary of my local beekeeping club and am a strong advocate of beekeepers utilizing any local clubs that might be available to them.
For the last 21 years I have worked at a children's home in the food service department.  I am currently the lead cook, but divide my time between preparing meals, baking, decorating birthday cakes, chairing a cultural diversity committee, answering questions and supervising teenagers.  In my free time I garden and I am learning to play the  fiddle.  I have played a musical instrument, of some type, almost all my life.  Taking up the fiddle is an attempt to keep the brain young.
I have a husband that allows me to play with bees, children and some of the smartest darned grandchildren around.

Thanks for the welcome.  Our only girl, actually she's my stepdaughter, is 34 and never been married.  She just recently started dating someone seriously.  It's going to take a special guy to make her commit.  Her older brothers got busy and each have 2 children each.
