I extracted some honey yesterday and let the girls clean up the frames today. They were enjoying soooooo good.

This is a strange time of yr for us. One day, or two, or three will be in the high 60's or low 70's, then a front comes through and we'll have cool to cold weather for two to four days. The weather is so back and forth. That other day, we had two fairly warm days, day before yesterday it was 70's, yesterday it rained, and last night it was in the 40's, its in the low fifties now, you never know this time of yr, really.

JP, that's nuthin'. At least you have it above 40, hee, hee, most of us are around 32 or below. Have a wonderful day, you got some nice weather. Cindi

Fall honey I removed from a hive that was leaning back way too much. I've had three supers in my kitchen since then. Extracted 1 medium and two other frames or three other frames, have more to go. Spring flow won't happen for a little while yet.
