Oh how cute she is and I see you have taught her well. A new beekeeper in the making. Is she your daughter?
Granddaughter, and she loves Bees. Got her first sting about two weeks ago, and didn't cry but about a minute. Spent the rest of the day saying "Sting you? Sing you?" Had to move all the nucs away from the house. Every time she could slip out the door she would run out to them. Never got stung, but you never know about the next time. When we check the hives we put her in the back of the truck and then back it up to about 30ft so she can watch. Yesterday, took her with me when I went by take a quick look, she rode standing on the foot rests of my power wheelchair. We went up to within 5ft of the entrances of a row of twelve hives at about 2pm. All the young Bees were flying around us so thick. She had the best time. Could barely get her back to the house. One of those Very Special Moments!! :bee: :bee: :bee:
Very cool HAB!
HAB, beautiful. Your Grandaughter looks lovely, if only it was the back of her head. These experiences that we lovingly give to our offspring are the most wonderful, years down that road she will remember being with her Grandfather, standing on the foot rests of his wheelchair, just lovin' him, life and the bees. Good for you. Instilling these wonderful things for children to ponder are worth their weight in gold. Beauty. Have that most awesome and most wonderful life, great health. Cindi
