Hi all--
On a somewhat lighter note than much of recent
discussion, I'm compiling a list of interesting
bee-related travel destinations, roadside attractions,
etc. This is mostly for my own personal use, but if
I'll share with anyone else who's interested. Nothing
is too trivial or too weird. Anything you know of,
whether it's a famous beekeeper's home or interesting
bee-related art, would be helpful to me.
For starters:
Honey of a Museum in Ashippun, WI-owned by Honey Acres
Apiary. An amusingly tiny beekeeping museum with a
good observation hive.
Buckfast Abbey in Buckfastleigh, Devon: To see the
bees, you have to flirt with busboys in the restaurant
cafe, but it's worth it.
Wewahitchka Tupelo Harvest Festival: The second
Saturday in May, iirc.
Statue of St. Gobnait in Ireland, surrounded by stone
bees.
Bernini fountain in Italy (Rome, I believe) which
features stone bees that often have their heads stolen.
