We were worried about the bees we just restocked in our four hives in our backyard, because we have had freezing 29degree weather and snow we had this week. Those poor bees, but they made it! Another year of honey!!!
Long live the bees!
The Bees Lived! Long live the Bees!

Were a Metro Detroit, Michigan, couple – second marriages for both of us – and we dream of retiring early to Travel the World. Follow us while we try and figure out to raise our kids, and save to retire. David is a Robot Programmer, Laura is a Medical Physicist. We put our kids before ourselves for years, saved and ate at home and now after years of all this sacrifice and raising our kids - we are closing in on empty nesting, and we realized we have the opportunity to retire earlier than most and follow our dreams to travel the world. How are we going to do this? Well we have a lot of ideas, but lets see how it works out. Our original retirement date was January 1, 2021. We are reviewing the option of working another 3 years but prefer to keep the 2021 date, either way we will be retired by 55 years old - still trying to figure out how, but working toward our goal everyday, while enjoying each other and our blended family. Follow us to see what happens. All images on this blog are copyright (c) View more posts

Love bees! Dad ate the last honey we harvested in 1968 early in 2020.

Long live the bees. The Queen? Nah!
We need to save the bees because of the critical role they play in our ecosystem. There are many factors behind the loss of bees. Climate change, pesticide use, loss of habitat, pollution, and parasites and predators are among other reasons.
