Recently we have been trying to make our beehives out of many different types of materials-partially to show people some styles that they can make from materials lying around in their yard, but also just for the fun of it. The bottom of the frame stays on the final product and the side slats get removed. A top slat also gets attached in the threading process. The grass hive ready for bees! .

But it has been a. One that I have appreciated every minute of. It was all worth it.

Tuesday, September 2, 2014. We finally finished making our hives. To complete them, we cut sheets of tin and nailed them onto the roof frames. We also rendered wax but it turned into an ugly brownish color since Kofi threw blue and red crayons into the rendered hot liquid. Monday, September 1, 2014. Monday, August 25, 2014.

When we got back to the house I packed my bags - I am shocked that I managed to fit everything. View from the coffee farm. Where they roast the beans. Next door at Strawberry Fields they were maki.

July 13th, almost time to fly home. Today went by so fast. I felt sick after breakfast so I played hooky from the bees. I went to the beach. Tomorrow Agape is going to teach me how to make samosas! With tamarind sauce and everything. July 11th, storms and sunset.
