I think he has three now, each with three supers (if I'm remembering what's
what in the hives). He used to have about six or seven, but he turned
eighty last summer and isn't as ambitious. But it's really good honey, now
that they live in North Carolina, in Hendersonville. It is largely sourwood
honey, which is almost clear and fairly valuable as honey goes.
