When I discovered girls, they were in hot pants and micro mini-skirts.. I think coming to age in the very early seventies was an advantage there... |

We used to wear the funny hat, but gathered many wild hives with a long pole and a big garbage bag... just knock them off the branch and let them drop into the bag. The only time it didn't work was when we mis-aligned the drop and the hive landed on my hs boyfriend's head. He only got stung three or four times on the neck and arms. -- Nom=de=Plume |

I do have a white Tyvec suit I wear for bees, but only with the funny hat man, i didn't know you were a fellow beekeeper! COOL! Nope, Grandpa was the beekeeper but he showed me how to do it. I am good at finding bees in old barns, and while clearing brush. I have also gotten pretty good at killing them  Last time we moved a colony out of an old lady's house, it was a funny day. The old man came running down from the ladder screaming at me in Polish. After about 10 versus of whatever he was saying, he heard me screaming back, "English Papa, I don't speak Polish". He told me to untie the hat, a bee had gotten inside!. Poor guy took one right above the eye. |

My uncle didn't even have to wear a suit, he'd usually just put on the helmet and screen, unless he just got some new bees. I remember one time somebody called him because they had bees, he took the siding off of athe old farm house, and there were more bees and honey than I ever saw. He got a bunch of honey when he extracted it, plus the bees. We took some comb and put in some supers, put the bees in, but the whole mess in the trunk of his car and went home! |
