"The boxes are ready!!"

today we finished painting the bee hives--2 of them....2 deep brood chambers and four supers...2 hive stands, bottom boards, inner covers and outer covers. Now I am waiting on the bees....2 3-pound bags, each with a marked queen.
Photos to come when I learn how to do this!!
My newly found "bee friend" told me I needed to stop calling them 'boxes' and start calling them "hives" so I will soon be a beekeeper...but not till I get the bees--my new girls!!
