As Woody so eloquently stated in another thread...
Swarm boxes go out next week. I have my first cut out scheduled for next week, and am currently removing the pallets and boards setting on 4x4's I have hives on.. moving them all over to dads while I set the Cinder blocks....
yes... Cinder blocks.. Why?
Well, thats what I said.. WHY!!!!!! I can use the auger on the tractor to dig the hole. set the post, pour concrete around it, run the 2x10's and level them.. I can do ALL the stands in about 4 hours...
Nope. Cinder blocks.. "SHE" thinks it will look nicer and last longer....
So.... I am setting the blocks.. rake, shovel and hoe... ONE block at a time to make sure they are level with the front side slightly lower.. one... block.... at... a..... time.... this is going to take three or four days... :'(
On the UP side.. they should last quite a long time.
Still need to go get the disk and run it up and down the draws, then toss out some seed for clovers and wildflowers.. starting to feel pressure to get this stuff done... but I have to paint the door jambs, fix the barns, paint the barns and the chicken fort... Why is that an emergency?? Nope, got to get the bee stuff done first. I'm putting my foot down!!!
Yep, Bee stuff is more important right now!!! I'll get started on it as soon as I have the barns painted and fixed......
