sean, OK, have actually been working on it. Ya, Christmas time is quite a busy time for everyone, but I am getting the document ready now in the next couple of days. I don't know if it will be of real interest to people, it was simply little ditties that at the time I was jotting down stuff, thought it was really important. Now that I re-read all these little points, they don't seem as important as they once were. Maybe it is because I think that I know quite a bit more (but not even 100% of what I need yet to learn). The notes may be pretty good for people starting out in beekeeping, I hope that they may be of some good help, if they aren't, they are interesting points anyways. So, hopefully I will have them up and on the forum for people to read. Great day. Cindi
