Plums! and a Castle or 2

 I HAVE PLUMS! They are on the newest plum tree, but I HAVE 6 PLUMS!





Everyone seems to be in agreement that these are black berries and I have quite a bit of them as well.



The Bees are doing great as well. I just put a "castle" on them. All that means is I added a box with frames. I am currently using 8 frame boxes. It still surprises me how docile these bees are; guess I did the right thing in making solid bottoms with limited openings. Didn't even need to use smoke to add the box. The boxes on top are a means to assist the hive with not getting too hot from the sun. Allowing some shade as well as air flow.


Finally got the fence along the front of the house down as well. All that is left are the fence posts and to put up another fence or just leave it without a fence.... decisions.
