Title: The Bickering Bee Keepers Remove Another Hive Down In New Orleans
Post by: JP on September 16, 2011, 03:53:42 PM
It was good to do another one with my buddy Schawee. Weather permitting we should be able to bring you more videos into late October. We shall see.

This removal was in a building being torn down from an old bus terminal. The building has had bees apparently several times in the past as evidenced by a huge amount of old comb between the floor joists. Sorry, I don't have any pics or footage of what that looked like but it was amazing how much old dead out was in those joists. I'd say about 16' worth.

Schawee in fact removed two hives from this same building a few months or so ago. At that time I was still having some back issues that prevented me from doing cut outs. He was nice enough to step in and give me a hand with this one and those back then.

Hope you enjoy the footage!

Dudes. I love the out takes and the cursing...they make me feel less like a klutz.

Great video. I started using a torch a while back to light my smoker and have loved it.

I need to shoot Susie a note that I just got my new jacket and really enjoy the length.  -Mike

Liz, I get my burlap from a landscaper friend. I buy it in big rolls that last me about a season and a half.

Today would be a good day to give him a call Tommy, it's raining big time over here. I'll see what he's been up to and report back. I'll see if he can start another thread if he wants to.

He's probably been doing cutouts and trap outs if I know him.

Just a quick lil update and story about Hardwood. I spoke with him today. He is doing well and been doing lots of cut outs as expected but doesn't have internet service at the moment to post any videos.

You see (and Scott said I could post this!  :-D ) while he was away in S.D. his internet carrier tried to double their fee!

Peggy basically told them to go, uh...

That's all I can say.  :-D

He will be around again once he finds another provider so y'all hang tight!
