<\/a>and some leaves on its top. \u00a0Odd, I thought, but didn’t go out to investigate. \u00a0Our orchard, where the bee hive is, is visible from our kitchen.<\/p>\nToday I went out to hitch up the cardboard sleeve which had slid down to the ground and attach it firmly for the winter. \u00a0That snow and some leaves on the bee hive was one of of our apple trees. \u00a0It had tipped over from the weight of the snow and landed on the bees.<\/p>\n
(It was the tree beyond the bee hive in this picture.)<\/p>\n
I cranked it back to vertical, tied it off to the fence with some plastic coated dog leads and realized it would require some more soil and some compacting before the snow flies, probably this week.<\/p>\n
The bees now have their winter protection. \u00a0The garage is on the way toward reorganization, too. \u00a0I spent an hour and a half or so doing this and that, glad to get out of the chair, even though it is a Miller Aeron.<\/p>\n
More Latin later. \u00a0Translating Lycaon from the Latin while I push the story through different paces in Dramatica. \u00a0That’s fun.<\/p>\n
I also started reading Robert Silliman’s Alphabet. \u00a0He’s a language poet and this is a series of riffs beginning with each of the letters of the alphabet. \u00a0It’s a very big book.<\/p>\n
(Zeus and Lycaon in Wedgewood)<\/p>\n
