		<title>Beekeeping Blog Revisted Part 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am very excited about introducing my daughter to the world of beekeeping.  I think it has so much of interest to little children, and some adults, who are often fascinated by the microcosms in nature. I have always loved things in miniature.
My aunt has a Victorian doll house and I can always remember staring [...]]]></description>

		<title>Beekeeping Blog Revisted 2012 Part 1 of 2.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hello all. Long time no write. I know. Is life an excuse?  Probably not but it is all I have to offer for not posting more. Basically I ignored my blog for the whole entirety of 2011 but since 2012 is the last year before the Mayan calendar implodes I thought I should write down [...]]]></description>

		<title>Beta Epsilon Epsilon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It has been a long long while since I have posted last. Mainly because I have had more activity in my life than a Charlie Sheen neuron.
I went out to visit the hives in early March.  All of them were strong in population except for one  which had a crucial flaw in their population management [...]]]></description>

		<title>Twas a Rambling Thought Before Christmas</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Twas a Rambling Thought Before Christmas by
The Weekend Beekeeper
Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the hive
Not a creature was stirring, was there anything alive?
The apistan strips were hung on the frames with care,
In hopes that Varroa mites would soon disappear.
The larvae were nestled all snug in their rooms,
While the sweet smell of honey [...]]]></description>

		<title>Halloween Honey Extraction</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Holy crap. Has it really been that long since I wrote last?  Life has been zooming by at near light speed during the last few months.  After almost 4 months of having a tree land on our house we are nearly half-way through getting the work done. The outside looks trim and proper but the [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Band Called Artichoke Creates An Album About Bees called &#8220;Bees&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The other day I received an email from a fellow named Timothy Sellers of the band Artichoke. He wanted to see if I might be interested in reviewing his bands album called &#8220;Bees&#8221;.  I said sure. What could it hurt. He mailed off a CD for me to listen to.  It must be said before [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Angry Bee God</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As stated before my bees are some spiteful little bastards. Originally I thought it might be external factors but with the re-queening of one of my friend&#8217;s hive with the same type of queens purchased for mine I can almost safely conclude it is the genetics. Weeks ago my friends hives were the vision of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gold In Thar Combs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I went out to the hives yesterday into the sweltering humidity that only a 3:00 pm summer day in Virginia can provide.  Armed with two bottles of ice water and small packet of Propel drink mix I was ready for anything the bees could throw at me.  Knowing that my hives were a little bit [...]]]></description>

		<title>Trees and Bees</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This has probably been one of the worst weeks I have had in a long time.  My bees hate me, the sun hates me, mosquitoes love me,  and now even trees plan my demise. About a week ago we had either a micro burst or a tornado go over our area and man it looks [...]]]></description>
