Oh, wait that's 6900!

No, wait, that' 6900 posts!

It must be those long NS winters. I for one am thankful that Perry spends so much time online helping out the rest of us.

Thanks Perry!

It won't take long for Perry to top that score. I predict by the end of next spring for sure when there will be more newbees during swarm season... ;) 8)

In addition to all  the vital information Perry gives us, he makes the forum so personable----he sorta turns all of us into one big family.  Everything is shared so lovingly, no putting on of shows and his generous sharing knows no imits.

And yes---there's that great sense of humor.
69K thanks to Perry.

Well put efmesch. I was thinking just a little while back what Perry does for this forum and its members.  The same goes for several others as well.

I have been shocked to see how poorly beekeepers treat each other on other Beek sites.  This place is really amazing.

Perry's head will swell even bigger if this keeps up, and that wouldn't be pretty.
This place pretty much runs itself (with the exception of our IT person, without whom we'd be up a creek). The content is 100% member created, and the atmosphere here is a result of the members that choose to sign in and participate. It's a family really.

   Wait, is that even POSSIBLE?
   I see an explosion forthcoming!


   LOL... Perry is awesome, kind, helpful, knowledgeable and humble!



   Okay, I lied about the humble part!
