Yesterday I was able to pick up nearly all the hive equipment with some transport help from Erv! I have enough for two happy colonies. I have to sand the supers down and stain or paint them, and I spent most of the afternoon scrubbing frames. Some of the frames had drawn comb worth keeping, which will help. The rest will test my patience and skill at setting up new wired foundation! Everything has to be bleached and frozen to kill off any potential verI'm getting two nucs from Salem, Indiana, probably next month.
