Interesting thought. Somehow I imagined I might manage to stop having
bees, but they just keep multiplying. I was down to three hives a year back
and figured I might finally break free, but now I find I have 32 hives
again.
Also, it turns out that having bees can be as much work or as little as you
like. Before I was a commercial beekeeper, 32 hives would have occupied all
my spare time. Now I might spend 30 hours a year on them and only work on
them a few times.
