Happy New Year!
2020 has arrived with horrific fire conditions on the mainland. Crews are now going into some of the burnt out communities to assess the damage, and to see how many have been killed. So far, 7 bodies have been found over the past 36 hours.
Here in Tassie, we have several fires in the North but none in our part of the state for now.
I robbed a hive today. It is in a friend's yard on the other side of the river. The one super produced 11kg of honey which means we will have a little coming in from the sales to buy some more frames and hive boxes.
I still have two hives to check, but they will have to wait a few days as we are back to rendering tomorrow.

Two old comrades (49 years married) have left the safe life of international teaching to begin a new venture: owner-building and farming for self-sufficiency in Franklin, Tasmania. Our 4 kids, and 10 grandkids, plus numerous friends, are encouraging us in our craziness. The last 10 years have seen another job come and go, cardiac bypass, a cancer battle, and learning on the job to build. ..and we live in Paradise: the Huon Valley, Tasmania.
