A New Beekeeper Friend!

I was lucky enough to meet Ricky Jones, a local builder who specializes in custom hives and cedar products AND he built and delivered my new hive along with my bees on Saturday AND he helped me install it AND gave me a bunch of good advice.  What a blessing.  I am so thankful for Rick's help.  He is nice and very knowledgeable about bees, having a family tradition of beekeeping and keeping bees most of his life.  He has about 40 hives on his property I think.  He just likes bees!  He's checked in a couple of times with questions.  
My nuc!


Removing the frames
Examining the frames, LOTS of everything in there.
Looking for the queen. Did not see her. That's ok. She is in there somewhere.



The frames went in to the new hive.

Rick and me, accomplishment!
Watch for bees!
