Diary 156
Friday, August 21st
Today was B-Day. Harvest time. I was very cautiously attired. Even so I had a bee crawl up inside my trouser leg, and one got into my B-Day suit and headed for my armpit. I’ve no idea why any creature on Earth would want to do that, but hey, bees….
Lots of honey harvested, tons of help from the grandkids, and a splendid learning activity for all. Lots of sampling of the product, naturally. Homeschool really is rather special. I took the pictures halfway through the process before I got too sticky. We have twice the yield pictured here. As you can see, the honey itself is still being strained through cheesecloth bags hanging in the kitchen. It is unbelievably delicious.
We’ve got a really neat planet. Let’s try and look after it.
