It’s still hot and dry and Mark’s still out in the bee yards feeding, watering and dusting bees. Today he delivered honey along his way to Gonzales to check the bees there and at the Pizza yard (quickly becoming one of the more intriguing yards to our loyal bee supporters). Always nice when we can combine many errands and chores together since gas is still about $3.45 here in Seguin and $3.39 in Gonzales. Did I tell you before that when Mark and I first started seeing each other and making the commute between here and San Antonio, that the gas was only $.89? Well, if I did, then sorry. But wow! What a difference! I want those days back please.
Back to the topic at hand. See the horse? There are actually two of them out at the Gonzales yard and they are inquisitive and not shy of us or our trucks. They come over sometimes and check on things. I think they would like it if we had treats for them as we do for the bees. 🙂 Mark said that he was tending bees when he turned around and saw this horsey with its head way into his feed bucket – eating on the Mega-Bee that was meant for our bees! Silly horse!

Ah, 89 cents per gallon … just think what the profit margin on honey could be!
