what is opa up to now?

this is me suiting up
a look inside the first of the 6 hives




even kate was able to suit up and get up close and personal with the bees

apiculture...
all that know my father (opa) knows he is a man that takes his hobbies seriously. last year when we visited we learned all about stones and we were all mezmorized as we watch opa take a stone fresh fromt he ground and turn it into a beautiful piece of jewelry. check them out: http://ringsofstone.com

so this year in addition to the stones he has also taken up beekeeping and was very excited to share the experience with all of us, young and old.
feeling inspired we hope to start a hive of our own come spring.
