Our new queen bees arrived today. The UPS guy was so curious about the label on the box, hubby gave him a tour our hives in the backyard. They are a special bred of queens that are suppose to be resistance to some of the mites and other pests that can weaken a hive. Hubby was so excited that he set the ladies up in their new hives as soon as he got the box open.
Flat Fish Paper Arts was born many years ago when blogging first started. My family did a lot of camping and diving along the California coast. California halibut are huge fish that start out as any normal fish. As they age, one eye will start to move to the other side and the halibut will become flat so it can lay on the bottom of the ocean with both eyes facing up.
I always like the idea that we all start out the same but life experiences slowly changes us. In my case, my creative talents went the way of paper arts. Flatfish are always looking up when they mature and as with any artist, we see inspiration in everything around us - always looking up.

Years ago a local dive shop had a photo of a diver who caught a halibut so big he had to throw it over his jeep to take the picture. Our little spoof with our daughter sitting in her toy jeep with dad's halibut on the hood. 1987

I have a gallon sized ziplock bag full of wine corks - do you & your bee guild want them for "floats"?
