The little country church my mom went to, when she was young, had honey
bees in the roof/eaves between the rafters. When it got hot in the
summer, a new pastor came to the church, and it got so hot the honey ran
down into the sanctuary.
So the new preach gets up, introduces himself, notes the running honey,
and says "Now I KNOW I am in the land of flowing milk and honey!"
True story!

Yesterday I noticed a bunch of bees buzzing around, looked up and see
a whole mess of them, honeybees, at an opening at the end of an eave,
which was on my roundtuit list... I posted my dilemma on a coupla of
our local FB groups, and a guy from up the road jumped on the
opportunity to come get them. He came by a while ago and is all
excited, figures there is a big hive in there. 3 or 4 other guys
responded too but this one was the first. He's gonna come start
getting them organize on Thursday, see how much they have going on up
in the eave. I guess I'm gonna get some (very) local honey!
This guy has 13 hives and is looking to buy 30 more from some old
dude's estate. Says that guy had a whole bunch of different kinds of
bees from other parts of the world.
