I took off 18 frames today.  Ended up with 58 pounds of light, thick and sweet gold!

Good stuff Dave.  My hive's supers aren't quite there yet.  close though. They are starting to cap what they've got. 
I'm starting to think that the bees are keeping me...

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.

Tested out at 16% humidity.  Very thick and sweet.

Blue, just out of curiosity, did that video have any sound?  I never heard a peep.
