They just wanted a little moral support from someone who had been through it, so I got to be there just to talk them through it.  They did an awesome job.  Funny to watch their disappointment at squishing their first bee.  I remember that feeling.  Boy, if only I could make a living doing that.  I could do that every day and not get tired of it.

One more beekeeper started today.

Good job! I sometimes think that helping others get into bees is the best part of beekeeping.

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Theodore Roosevelt 1907
