The upcoming bees will need full sun and a flat platform for their hive. So today we repurposed some ancient iron railings (removed in 2003 from the front porch) and a stage platform built for Powhatan. Throw in some cinder blocks, a few fence posts, and some barbed wire, and you have a hopefully horse-proof site.

The truck was helpful in moving stuff around (as always).
