This is how to work the hives, on a hot summer's day!!!

Last summer, during a pretty hot day, I had some fun....the bees were calm, they were having fun too.  Enjoy the pics, AND...have that most wonderful day, Cindi

I only got stung twice this year. Both times it was when I was dressed like you, in a tank top. Never again for me.

 Great pic's Cindi. Beautiful countryside.
 Johnny, your tank top would have to be pink to match your bucket veil.

Looks funny eh? I find that the less places that the bees can find dark places, like up my sleeves, the less I am likely to get tickled by their sticky little legs and get that itch to itch....the less clothes, the safer I am.  Now when the weather is cooler, I love to wear my beesuit.  Now that one poses a problem all the time.  Every time I wear it, the wrists are a little loose and a bees climbs in and it distracts me terribly.  Rarely stung, but I have to put down what I am doing and go and let that bee out, I can't stand that tickliing feeling, and in the back of my mind, I think that I may feel that hot burning feel of the sting, I don't like that feeling, hee, hee.  Every time that happens, I tell myself to fix that beesuit and make the wrists tighter.  Bees like to climb upwards, and when they see a darkness, like a sleeve entrance, you can bet your bottom dollar that they are going to investigate.....have a most wonderful and great day, great health wishes to us all.  Cindi
