  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.

No one means all he says, and yet very few say all they mean,
for words are slippery and thought is viscous.

Well, I'm still alive, but I have been too busy to devote much time to these pages. In the past month or so, I went to the west coast, did some kayaking and whale-watching, sailed halfway around Vancouver Island on a 38 foot sloop, did some major roof repairs (more to come), went SCUBA diving at Minnewanka, and other things that kept me pretty busy.    What will the future bring?  I don't know.  We'll see.

Anyhow, I've done a little writing for BEE-L, and here is a list:
