It was a verrrryyy long day but well worth it.  We in the south developed our "iron butts" soon after moving here as we are far from everything!  Thanks!

A great big thank you to the Southern New Mexico Beekeepers for driving the long haul to get to meeting. You all win the gold metal for your "iron butts!" Let's think about getting an event your way. The board worked hard to make the Lecture happen and we had volunteers and help from all over.

So sorry to mislead! Although she is a very good writer, she did not write this.

Very nice article! I didn't know she was a writer.

You can never have enough of those things.

5 Gallons, near the commercial desk and the big roll up door in the lumber department. Far south end of the store, on a pallet. Looks like it may be a seasonal item!
