She is terrified of bees and I thought if I showed her the vulnerability (and something about them being coated in sugar!) they were seem less of a monsterosity and more of a creature that also needs to brush its hair and teeth as well.Shades of Scorpiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15221836561688800717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27329001.post-29257032382840210422008-11-02T09:23:00.000-05:002008-11-02T09:23:00.000-05:00Aw, poor bees!

There are FOUR feral hives reported within three miles of my garden! I'm so fortunate!<BR/><BR/>My husband and I went over to our neighbor's house yesterday where he has two feral hives. The bees were swarming all around the tall silo (abandoned and not in use) at the old barn that still stands on our shared land here in our neighborhood. Couldn't figure that out.<BR/><BR/>CameronF Cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14558874651743241988noreply@blogger.com
