Today was our mandatory bee workshop class in Abingdon.

We were both concerned that it might be a long day of sterile instructions in a boring class.

I'm happy to report that the day whizzed by with an energetic and funny expert who is also head of the entomology department at Virginia Tech.

His enthusiasm for bees was contagious, and I highly recommend a program like this for the aspiring bee keepers out there.
