Hot and Dry

     The BEE in this Arizona Desert is surviving the hottest and driest July in the history of Arizona. I'm glad I live in Tucson, because it was only 108 today, not the 110 of Phoenix.

     Bees have water gatherers that bring back moisture. Some of the workers start flapping their wings, some in the doorway. These bees are smart, they work together for the benefit of the whole hive to keep it cool.

     Did you know that bees recognize colors and that they recognize their hive if it's a certain color and oriented in a particular direction? 

     Now these cute bee houses/hives are in England, I believe. But if you look closely you will see many at the door/slit of the nearest house. 

    Now here's a comment from me that is just out of left field. My last name is Field and I saw a blogger post with the name Left Field. So that thought took me to Right Field. If I posted under that name would I be unabashedly saying I'm right? No, that wouldn't do. What about Middle Field? Would I then be walking down the median of mediocrity or as another LDS blogger says "That's Adequate!" their slogan. LOL.

Here's signing off:

Just Take Another Shot

Bob takes Selfie 1961

Bob Still Taking Photos in 2020

     My High School friend, Bob Burke, received his first camera in 1961 and the first photo he took was in the mirror. He still uses this as his FaceBook portrait, and his daughters say, "Hey that's the oldest selfie on FaceBook." Well, oldest meaning earliest one taken, dated then posted. 

     Now all his photography is done on a digital camera. He's never without it. He posts photos he's taken online, mostly at the request of friends, where there are weddings, sports events and travel photos numbering in the 10,000's. A lifetime of FOCUS.

     Now it's time for BEE in the Desert to FOCUS in this blog so that it is relevant to the 2020 Pandemic; self (read that physical) distancing but definitely NOT social distancing. Here we Go: Family Memories, Bee Culture, and insights into the scriptures.
