Conchis, welcome to our forum, so nice that you found us. That is a hard thing when we lose our bees, but consider it a learning curve. You know that you are under the spell of the honeybee, that is why you are going to keep them again, that is wonderful. This will be a place where you can learn, tell your stories, tales and experiences, hang out and make new friends. We are all interested in what everyone else is doing and we care -- this you will see. Stick around. AND....have that most wonderful and awesome day, life, and great health. Cindi
