I totally relate because I too am a "newbee" (I'll be starting my first
hives next spring) as well as a full-time wife and mother and business
owner. Although I have done a lot of research on my own, have purchased
several beekeeping books, and joined my local beekeeping association, I
still value the Bee-L a great deal and would hope that my questions would
be welcomed by the more seasoned beekeepers here on Bee-L.
Thanks in advance to you on the Bee-L who are more experienced and endure
the questions of us "newbees" with patience... you are our "cyber-mentors,"
and we appreciate your help a great deal.
Thanks again...
