June 7, 2014:
I'm about to leave for a trip to Greece with my mother, and I've been told that bears have been sighted in the neighborhood. Last year a black bear got into my mentor's hives and caused horrible damage. I'm a bit paranoid about this, enough so that I decided to invest in a solar-powered battery and electric fence. With the invaluable and tireless help of my husband Ken and our 11-year-old son Sam, the whole fence was erected in a day. But what an enormous amount of work. The bees were mostly very patient with all of this, even the banging-in of posts.
