To BEE or not to be and the plastic bag apocalypse

The sun has been an under-appreciated natural resource here in Rochester in recent years, favoring rain and other such snowy natural utterances. Recently, it is hard to remember a day when her beautiful penetrating rays didn’t bathe us in warmth from the moment we stepped outside our doors in the morning ’til we put the chickens in at night. The sun gives our world life and energy. What other things shall we appreciate in the world around us? How about this little bee here that I happened upon nestled amidst the towering lilies in Jonathan’s garden the other morning.
