Lilacs are looking great! They smell great too.
Yikes! Do you have a swarm trap ready to go?
I forgot to mention that the incumbent president chose to launch his presidential election bid via a pre-recorded message that could be carefully crafted and produced. Not a good look. It just goes to show the level of shielding, insulating, and helping him along. Both parties do this, and this is not how it should be.
The US presidential election process is devolving into a coronation. The incumbent president essentially rigs the system to silence challengers (RFK Jr and other serious contenders are not offered as choices in political polls), the primary states are reshuffled so that a more favorable outcome for the incumbent is reached (Biden’s first win, SC, is taking Iowa’s place), and there will be no primary debates (there’s no way to rig it to have questions and answers provided ahead of time). Now, the main challenger, Donald Trump, is considering not attending primary debates for his party. This is how democracy dies. If your spidey senses are not tingling yet, they should be.

My girls are hard at work, bringing in pollen for the hive. Bees are so much fun to watch!

Totally agree. Zapworthy take! Tried to zap this, but it’s not working.
Installed a nuc two weeks ago (yellow) and installed a package today (green). First time ever messing with a package of bees, so I hope they don’t leave. I have that extra deep on top because I have the package box inside there, because so many bees were still inside the box, and I also have the feeder can in there. Fingers crossed!

A few Polish chicks and one self-hatched mutt. They grow up so fast!

I had the chance to see Van Halen in concert 4 times over the years. Great concerts!
I thank my hens for their service and sacrifice. That had to hurt!

I can’t imagine how much it hurt to lay that double yolk. Yikes!
That is the dilemma of a Bitcoiner. Gifting and spending might lead to more widespread exposure, understanding, and adoption. However, most of us are hodlers because we know what we have here.
Other than the wildly swinging temperatures, I love this time of year!

So, now that gold has been hacked, is it going to be deemed a s#%*$coin, and it’s value tank 90%? If a crypto project or exchange was hacked like this, detractors would be FUDing it like crazy. Something tells me gold will not get the same negative coverage.
