Mornin’, Red,

I’m happy to report that up here, a little north of your area, I have had several honeybees every morning on the blooms in my little garden. Been a long time since I have seen any of those.

They stay as busy as, well, bees! My squash had been planted for about 6 weeks, and done nothing BUT bloom. It is very large and has been covered with blooms, but no squash. That is, until right after I started seeing the honeybees. Now it is covered in little squash.

The only reason I mentioned the Honey Bees is because they have been very scarce around my garden the last couple of years. The only ones I have had vist in numbers have been Bumblebees and they were very busy and welcome to all the pollin they needed. Now I have both - well at least for now.
