What an amazing morning as I sat and motivated myself for more work than I do everyday. I was going to open a hive and see
Well it?s a 2 box medium 10 frame that had only 3 frames of honey last year.
Well at my age and the Florida heat makes it hard to do a whole box.
But once I saw all ten frames loaded, I took a deep breath and took frames 2x 2 to my porch to scrape.   
Lol I was so excited I forgot to scrape one side of a frame -
When I got back to the hive, I said here, y?all can have it!!
I sure appreciate the 40 pounds you gave me sweet girls
And I?ve learned to take extra time to brush all the girls off before I work.
Very proud of what we did today(them and me!)
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Then all else falls in line
It?s up to me

Congratulations Salty. Enjoy your honey. Probably the best honey you have ever had.

Great to hear from you, Salty!  I agree with Jim, there is nothing like tasting honey your bees made just for you!  :happy:

Thank you all.
I got 17 pints and 3 quarts from 10 medium frames.
I can?t wait to start mailing to my relatives.
My son loves his annual honey box in the mail all my with some cousins and a few old friends.
It?s amazing what honey can provide. Joy love and nutrition
Hope your hives are alive and well!!
And Jim, I saw your post in another thread about smoking and waiting ten minutes and it?s advice you gave me 4 years ago!! Thankyou
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Then all else falls in line
