I'm in NC for work, trying make the time until my flight pass fast. So here are some recent pictures.
 |
| A stack of kids. And yes, I believe that is Zachary on the bottom, and yes, it was his idea. |
 |
| Little Quinton at the library. He usually only lasts through two books before wanting to try the computers, which we let him do since the other three like to stay a long time. |
 |
| Our peppers, tomatoes, and herbs hardening off outside. |
 |
| I tilled the chicken run in preparation for planting quinoa, clover, alfalfa, amaranth, and sunflowers. I let them pick over the dirt a while before fencing off this section of the chicken run. |
 |
| Payge on her first hive inspection. She even found the queen in the hive she inspected. |
 |
| A queen cell. This hive will either swarm or supersede. I'm guessing the latter, otherwise we should have seen the swarm by now. Plus, they have been vengefully grumpy for me inspecting the hive and stung me all over the yard for the next three days. |
 |
| The grumpy hive after their powdered sugar varroa mite treatment. Varroa is essentially a bee vampire, and the powdered sugar encourages the bees to groom the Varroa off of each other. |
 |
| Quinton playing with a tractor at the father son camp out. |
 |
| Quinny sleeping at his fist camp out. |
