  A Beekeeper's Diary
This is a diary of activities in our commercial beekeeping operation at Swalwell in Central Alberta,
Canada, and observations on the business of commercial beekeeping.  I've retired, and we've now
reduced to thirty or so hives, but be sure to visit the logs from previous years.

After I'm dead I'd rather have people ask why I have no monument than why I have one.
