Got Honey?

It's been about a week and a half since I checked on the hives since it's been so hot (90s+!) and holy cow, the hives are exploding with bees, honey, brood, everything! I added a third super on Toby's hive and Cam's hive is ready for a fourth. That meant another trip to Tate's for more supers. I got three this time, wonder if it'll be enough? I pulled a frame of capped drone comb for the second time from Toby's hive and stuck it in the freezer.
Next on my to-do list is inspection of Cam's hive and addition of another super but it'll be too tall to reach! That means Jon needs to give me a hand. I need to figure out how I'm goingto harvest this honey: when? Where? How?
Stay tuned!
