Received new queen on July 2 2014
Got 2 more frames of bees from jimmy on July 2 2014, these bees seemed much more aggressive than first bunch.
Placed queen cage into hive July 3 2014,
Removed cork from queen cage July 4 2014. Hive now consists of 7 medium frames and 2 deep frames.
July 8 2014, took 7 medium frames and placed in medium box along with 3 new frames, 2 of which are foundation less. Placed 2 deep frames that were being drawn out into deep box along with 4 new frames. Released the queen, she flew away but came back. Saw her walking around one of the coffee cans with water and vegetable oil that legs of stand are in, then she fell in. Fished her out and placed her on top of the frames and she went down into frames. Hope the other bees clean her up and shes alright.

69 Serro Scotty Hilander

My wife and I just purchased a 1969 Scotty Hilander to camp in. About 5 years ago we started building and then camping in a teardrop camper but due to circumstances we had to move up to something bigger but did not want to get one of the really big campers, we like the little ones. We found our camper on craiglist and drove to Joplin Mo. to pick her up. It needs some work but was in really pretty good shape for a 42 year camper.
So here we go on our new adventure. Paul
