We are going straight into honey bees. My girls have never been afraid of bees. They often pick up bees and hold them. I think they will be naturals around bees.

How did they do over the winter? Seems the past 2 winters were particularly hard on hives and lots of folks lost all or a good chunk of their colonies. Snoho Bee Company - apparently they are under new ownership, so I've heard. New owners aren't really experienced keepers. Just like the...

No names. Unless a giant lake with lots of pressure already. Rufus Woods, Chelan, Washington, Puget Sound (not a lake, but same idea).

My twin daughters and I are starting to get into beekeeping. Anyone here do that? Anyone local to the snohomish/monroe are?

Refreshing honesty and self-awareness. Love it.

Don't forget that just last year we had this: https://www.usatoday.com/story/graphics/2023/03/15/california-snowfall-record/11435377002/ I'm sure kids now will be talking about that 30 years from now.... "When I was a kid...."

Old Town 120 PDL. Love it. A fishing machine on lakes, rivers, and even salt.

Haven't tried the "recent imagery". That's on Google Earth? How recent are we talking? Is it reliable? Used to be some images would be 5 or more years old. OnX still has images that are very old and clear cuts and roads no longer match in some places. I'd imagine that snap-to on a place...

For off trail, just have to make your own path by clicking at various points and not use the snap to feature. Google Earth - I use it for satellite imagery and the 3 D views of there terrain. You can really get a feel for the landscape that way and look at it from every angle. Last year I...

Beautiful country. Need to get back over there.

Tracks are most dangerous when more than one set is present. The first one passes and you don't hear or see the second one.
