SYNOPSIS:
In this episode I talk about treating my boots with beeswax paste to make them waterproof. Relaunching the production of videos to our BKCorner YouTube Channel. I report on the texture and outcome of the creamed honey we made last winter. There is a new and improved power source coming to Oxalic Acid Vaporizers. A PSA about being cognizant of fire dangers in the Apiary. A cookbook from May Berenbaum as well as a recipe and ties to the show the X Files. A reflection on our 2022 queen rearing activities. A local hive report, and some commentary about my father passing and condolences.
