The Denver Post had an interesting article on bees last Sunday, I thought it
might be of interest to those on the list. It can be found at the link
below.

On the local front, I'm still feeding my two hives 1.5 to 2 gallons of sugar
water a week. Our weather is pathetic, no rain for over 2 months, we've had
13 days straight of 100+ temperatures and tied our all time high today of
108, 107 yesterday, and possible 109 tomorrow. Did I pick a bad year to
start beekeeping? Lots of feeding and don't expect any honey.
