Today, Edgar transferred some Gimerito bees into a new
home. They had been living in a gallon plastic jug and, hopefully, will
appreciate their new digs. I was waiting a beekeeper to move the hives but
Edgar said he knew how ... and he did!! In just a few minutes we had them
transferred. He is off to the house where he and his mother will transfer the
second hive. It was so exciting to find out that Edgar knew how to do this and
was happy to give it a whirl.

Our next housing project got a boost yesterday as we
acquired the maps of the land last night. The official documents are a couple
weeks away but ... first step that is concrete. Hurrah. It has been a lot work
and not without difficulties.
Not much else for news other than that. Enjoy the
pictures.
