Thanks for the update. A'monds are such a big part of the US bee industry. Hope the bees have enough resources to outlast a week of rain.

Went through hell the last 4 days getting bees placed. Still have 3 more drops before middle of next week. Got a truck stuck and a swinger stuck so bad we couldn’t see the tires. Luckily pulled them out and finished the drop. I agree with your comment on the quality of colonies… either they are really small dinks or they are booming. We hardly have anything in between.

Can’t imagine being out there these past few days. It’ll be interesting to see if it’s a wet spring like last year

@@Hive5Bees yeah it was pretty miserable not going to lie. Hoping for a nice spring. We got a hell of a honey crop last year from a yard that typically produces very little summer honey

By the end of the weekend, just about every orchard will be a muddy mess and difficult to drop pallets

Great job with the breakfast list, but ya got it backwards ya start with COFFEE😂Kevin. Have a good week Kevin watch out, sounds like rain is on the way for CA. Blessed Days... I have some that look like the NW version of those, that makes me feel good.😁They were even bring in white/grey pollen this week. Yep my bees are doing great or they are already gone, it's just time. But honestly I am ok with that and in most cases I know what I did wrong and it's all about learning. It's just my 2nd Winter after all, and I am discovering beekeeping in the NW has different challenges then many other parts of the country I believe.

When I was in my mid-20s my great aunt married an A'mond Rancher (they lived in the Turlock area). I haven't heard anyone outside of that area use that pronunciation. (do they still call them ranches?)
