ohhh like this one...weaving several strands that resonate, with bees how one time coming back after several weeks to home here and on porch the moonlight shining on side of old brick chimney sensed a quivering liquid mass gathered on edge where it butted the wood siding: eventually we had to cut a hole to remove 2 hives and 2 queens and that guy had a vacuum and a queen catcher and i helped and he told me how the scouts must have had an eye on my place for awhile and jumped at chance to move in in my absence from an overcrowded hive always nearby......the other love letter thing reminds of a story my cousin tells of attending memorial for a young man killed in 911 and a woman rising up and reading a moving letter he had written her and then there was a gasp and a shout of startled recognition from another woman in the throng trembling with emotion and blurting out "He once wrote me the SAME

letter!"

that fir will no doubt be well tended

Wow cool stories, the bee one was so vivid. I wonder what a queen catcher looks like. The story about the memorial and the reading of the moving letter duplicate made me laugh out loud! Hilarious and what an event to learn more about the killed young man. Thanks for the stories!
