Our swarm season has officially started

[LindsayBrower1]

I am a bit envious you have someone of such experience and willingness to help living close by Lindsay.   When assisting him or vice versa.. NEVER give up an opportunity to ask a question!!
   I had no idea the questions I should have been asking until well after my mentor was gone... It came as a very startling revelation when I realized how much I didn't know..     Just beware of adopting your mentors stubborn streak. I have noticed that once he sets his hooves thee aint no moving him!!!     

I don't know how I got this lucky, but yes Im very fortunate. Im sure once I start putting more " pieces to the puzzle "together  Ill have more questions! And I feel the same way about not knowing much    haha!! Im sure it will come with time...

Lindsay    I'm into my fourth season. The first three I suffered a lot of casualties because I didn't have a mentor. I joined this forum in January, and it's a darned good thing I did. These people have pulled me thru some serious difficulties that stemmed from incorrect decisions in my first years. And they pulled me thru my first swarm season which turned out to be much more than any one could figure out. They helped me solve the problem. So far peace now reigns in my queendom.

If I could gather all of these people whom I consider my dear friends, I would probably just stand there and blubber.

Welcome! You're in very good hands here ~
