Good stuff Dave.  My hive's supers aren't quite there yet.  close though. They are starting to cap what they've got.

Those supers look great.  I agree with Jen, the water bearer was just beautiful.  We have sons and grandsons, and I hate to think how much money my wife would spend on a girl.  Anyway, it looks like you had a perfect day.  Harvesting honey is so rewarding.
