I'm probably one of the closest people and she's still the other long end of the state.
Mark (IndyPartridge) might be closer (just the width of the state).

That doesn't even consider its 2 degrees above zero here - I wouldn't suggest moving bees now.

It may be a bit warmer down there, but sorry its not practical here.

I do appreciate you offering them to the forum rather than forgetting the subject!
