I wonder if there is another catagory. When I stand there at the Farmer's
Market with my Landscape Contracting company shirt on, often (in terms of
gross income from the contracts I land that way) I make much more money
than the money I get from selling honey. And when I mention that I'm a
beekeeper, my contracting customers occasionally ask me to bring along some
honey to buy. In addition, when it's raining and I can't work outside,
extracting honey keeps me working.

I find it harder and harder to separate my contracting with my beekeeping,
and the seven thousand dollars or so that I made last year with the bee
products wasn't near what I made that is related to the fact that I'm a
beekeeper.

I'm sure there are others like me, maybe researchers for instance, that
don't really fit into any of the three other catagories.
