The bees survived their journey to the garden, but it became apparent
yesterday that I'd placed the hive to close to the garden.
So at dusk this evening, I moved them again -- this time about a
hundred yards away from the garden. Hive-haulin' modom, out there on
the prairie schlepping bees across the fields.
I still need to figure out a water source for them, but it'll come.
