madgardener up on the ridge, back in Fairy Holler, overlooking English
Mountain in Eastern Tennessee, zone 7, Sunset zone 36 where there are
still a few people close by who have hives.


Didn't realize that Asians had anything to do with the goombahs'

goombah bees never recovered..

Learned something new today.
