That time of year again

Here in Manitoba we also sometimes tap Birch trees, but sadly running the rest of thr farm usually takes up to much time and energy to make with the sweeter things in life so we po' folks jus have to do with sweet glover honey made by our specialty trained Northern attack Bees instead . Damn it's hard to outrun a mob of dem bees when yer wear in snow shoes.

Last summer a guy was showing his hives off to me when a few kept buzzing by us and giving us warnings. He explained to me that they were very docile bees. Of course, this was before the hive became africanized. Dang things liked to have eaten me alive. Our retalition was with fire. Just picture four hives in the scene of Apocalypse Now.
