They just gather pollen, which is why they sometimes look like they're wearing fluffy yellow sweaters.Speedwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16294062505751359294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1380304323931971092.post-87447495318841896642011-09-23T14:59:11.762-05:002011-09-23T14:59:11.762-05:00OK, A., I'm glad you ID'd yourself because...OK, A., I'm glad you ID'd yourself because this had me a bit concerned.<br /><br />Yeah, I kinda know about the bees. I just start typing to make a story and this is what falls from my fat fingers.<br /><br />I've been half wandering around Speedway looking for a place to put a hive next Spring. So far, everyplace looks like it could be vandalized or otherwise disrupted.Speedwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16294062505751359294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1380304323931971092.post-3041012223596661712011-09-23T14:50:13.012-05:002011-09-23T14:50:13.012-05:00All good except that there are no male worker bees...All good except that there are no male worker bees.

I've been wanting to start my own hives - it wouldn't cost much money - but I'd have to find a place to site the hives both where people/vandals wouldn't get to them and that would be convenient for me to tend them. Hmmm.<br /><br />The Schmoos were an unexpectedly popular spin-off from Al Capp's Lil Abner strip, another of which was Fearless Fosdick. There is ephemera to be collected as it there were comic books, ceramic items, fishing lures, etcSpeedwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16294062505751359294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1380304323931971092.post-52195596734888191342011-09-23T01:39:20.724-05:002011-09-23T01:39:20.724-05:00Wow!

You're going to have some good local honey next Spring, Speedway … that is unless those flighty critturs follow your script and spend all their time flirting.<br /><br />I'd never heard of the Schmoos and now I want some. I wonder if the pet store has any I can buy.divehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12938980502783421961noreply@blogger.com
