You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

-t, perhaps you could find someone with an orchard or garden who'd LOVE to have the little pollinaters come live with them.

What is even happening?

I know the bees are really important to you, -t. I'm sorry. I hope there's a good solution for you.

That's a shame, -t. Did I ever tell you about the woman I know who puts her bees up in county open space? She just drives up the fire roads until she finds a nice quiet spot...

Not that I would ever recommend you do such a thing. Ahem.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Thanks, y'all. I'm sure my scofflaw bees will find a more law-abiding home. I am tempted to just try to force them to swarm and see what happens. But I won't.

Eta: You did, Consuela! I was actually just remembering that.

-t, how about a community garden?

edited to add: In this case, when you tell someone they've gone to live on a farm, they really have!

I love bees. I wish you would come live near me.

Ann, that's a ferret.

When I was a kid, my father kept bees. For several years, they were on land way out in the country. I don't know what arrangement he had with the owner -- I was about 5 or 6 at the time. But I remember being able to run around the area (not too close to the hives!) while my father harvested the honeycomb.
