...what's in a name

I should address the name of the blog.  Rachel and I drove a lot yesterday.  We started at the bee yard to pick up our hives and then headed to find the rumored bee store in LaFayette, GA.  While driving, I suggested naming all of our bees.  Rachel quickly pointed out that the task would be impossible due to the sheer number of bees that will reside in our hives.  My next suggestion was to name the queen bees.  I immediately named my first queen bee Priscilla.  This name seems fit for a Queen.  Rachel's stately queen is named Gwenevere.  As her name suggests, she will be the more refined of the two queens.  Hopefully, they will be equally successful queen bees!
