      WTS: 33 frame honey extractor 350.00

      I am selling a 33 frame honey extractor made by Kelly. I am asking 350.00. It was built in the 70’s and I’ve had it since 2000. I have extracted thousands of pounds of honey over the last 20 years with it without any problems. I just replaced a few parts that wear on it with use, so it is ready...

There is some scratches and such, but this will make a great shop trash can or a great camp trash can. It’s in Baton Rouge and will need to be picked up at my house. Text or call me...

      Comb honey, it’s a beautiful thing.

      The bees have been rolling like a freight train since the main honey flow started around May 2nd. The flow is just about over now and it’s amazing what a colony of bees can do. I try to make 3-5 boxes of comb honey each year, but ya never know until the frames have been drawn out and filled...

      Researching holographic optic for AR

      The ole bee man is looking for some suggestions from the pros on what’s available out there as far as holographic optics go. I know Eotech is the big player in the game, but I think there are some others out there also. Weight is a factor as I’d like to keep the rifle on the lighter side. The...

      Pushed to the limits, but finished my hike through the Smokey Mountains

      My wife and I headed out last week to finish the section of the Appalachian Trail through the Great Smokey Mountain National Park. It was this section of the trail that got me interested in the AT many years ago and I was happy that she and I were able to finish it. We had physically prepared...

      2/12/24. The boards are gone. I have a pile of treated 5/4 tongue and groove boards I removed from my porch. They are in good to fair shape and could be used for a variety of projects. Deer stands, deck at the old cabin, wall in the work shop. I only removed them because I poured concrete for...

      Makes you wonder ….

      I was removing my EDC knife from my pocket and noticed that a bee had found its way into the hole at the end of the handle of the knife. How this could happen is beyond me. I use the knife all day long working around the house and shop and sometimes in the bee yard but for a bee to tuck itself...

      The elusive snipe

      With the cold weather that moved in the snipe came also. While working around the shop last week I noticed a good many snipe hanging around the yard surrounding the shop. It’s been many a year since we’ve seen this type of activity. They love cold days and moist ground which aids them in finding...

      Late season dove hunt on last day of the season. Pics included.

      This weekend was the last weekend for doves, so we gathered the crew and got after it. The approaching cold front brought the birds in and we had a pretty good hunt. We also plant some sunflowers and soybeans each year to keep them in the area, but it really is more weather dependent as to...

      4 national parks in 4 days (pics included)

      Earlier in the year we had planned this trip for the week after Christmas, but decided to cancel because of reasons I can’t even remember as I type this. As we were sitting around one evening putting up Christmas decorations we changed our mine again and decided to make the trip after all. We...

      Squirrels,suppressed.

      Was able to slip in the woods this morning with the CZ and procure a few squirrels. The can definitely gives you an advantage, especially if you need a second shot. Gotta head to work now, the bees wait on no one.

      Made the front page of the advocate and no, I wasn’t arrested

      The ole syrup operation got some publicity today in the advocate. It’s a feel good story on my Uncles cane syrup operation. I’m just labor as he’s the brains behind the business. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you. Count your blessings as any day above ground is a good one.

      Little Boys/ Another slice of Americana. 1 picture

      Every year when we, mainly my awesome wife, decorate our tree for Christmas, we always hold this little ornament in high esteem as it is one of our favorites. It’s a grade school aged kid dressed like an Indian with his bow and arrow either dancing around a campfire or chasing imaginary buffalos...

      Chasing some bushy tails with my first love. Pics included

      Like most kids back in the day I started my hunting career with a crack barrel 20 gauge made by Ithaca. I believe it was a Model 66. After using it for a few years to hunt anything and everything I decided it was time to step up my game and get something I didn’t have to reload after every shot...

      Hiking the West Highland Way in Scotland. Moors, dales and lochs oh my !!!!

      My wife and I started planning this trip over a year ago. We had been to Ireland before and really enjoyed it, so we figured we’d probably like Scotland just as much and we were not disappointed. We picked October to make the trip as usually the weather is cool and less rainy, plus the pesky...

      Bassin in the the North Woods.

      The ole bee man made a a trip to the north woods the second week of September. We were going on the back side of the full moon which usually means good weather and good fishing and we were not disappointed. After suffering 103 degree weather for the last 4-5 weeks it was nice to have 70’s and...
