Title: Hello from Beerookie in So Illinois
Post by: beerookie on March 12, 2009, 12:43:33 AM
Hello everyone,

Sherman here from Red Bud Ill. About 45 miles SE of St. Louis, MO.
I've had my bees for 12 mos. & 9 days now. We're still getting acqainted. My new father-in-law
of 18 mos. gave me his established hive. I mentioned that I'd like to get some bees and started researching. Much to my suprise, 4 mos. later, he gave me his! How cool is that!!!!

I browsed your forum last night for 2 Hrs. and realized this is the place to be for info. Hope your all
patient, cause I'm full of questions.

He does like you doesn't he?  I haven't figured out if he is saying thank you for taking his daughter off his hands, or punishing you... :roll:

Welcome to the forum. Hope you enjoy.
