Honey Bees

   A house in Houston contained a honey bee hive with over 200 pounds of honey in it. That's insane! Correct me if I'm wrong, but honey weighs 11.88 pounds per gallon, therefore this house had 16.8 gallons of honey stashed inside it's walls!!

   Brian and I went with one of his friends to remove a colony of bees from an abandoned home a year or so ago. Click here to read about my experience with that. I thought I wanted to raise our own bees to have all natural honey all for ourselves, until one bee crawled into my suit and stung me. It hurt for days.
Me as a bee-keeper.
I was smiling because this was taken before the sting.
