How it started

The interest in becoming a beekeeper started at my friend's 50th birthday party. One of the gifts that he received was a jar of honey. Later in the night my wife and I started talking with the lady who gave Jim the honey and discovered that she was a beekeeper. She explained how she went to bee school throught the local bee keepers association. Our timing was lucky, as within two weeks the Meckbees had a one night intro to bee keeping night. We went and enjoyed ourself enough to register for the full bee school. Bee school began about six weeks later.
