An afternoon with the bees

We had the most interesting day! We went to Mulkeytown, IL, where Bill's grandpa lived as a young man. We went to visit the Leedle Houme Bees Farm. The owner gave us a quick lesson on raising bees, and answered all of our questions, She had just harvested the honey this morning, and it was wonderful and fresh tasting. so I bought a quart and some creamed honey too. We spent well over an hour there. That lady knew EVERYTHING about bees, just fascinating stuff!
