Title: Ready for winter...minus wrapping.

Zero harvest for me this year. Extra frames were distributed among light colonies. Still an awesome year going 3 for 3 on swarm catches. (First time) One swarm went into a TBH. (also a first)

Wrapping is a little while away but, yes I will be wrapping hives. Right now night time lows of 35-38 degrees and daytime highs in the 60's.
