     You made it a fun and enjoyable experience for a first timer.  You can't go wrong with the price.  I recomend taking both classes back to back.  I am thinking of taking the class again before my package bees arrive just for a refresher course.

    I really enjoyed the class.  I never would have thought that bees could be so 'tame'.  You were very thorough in your teaching and I gained a lot of useful information.  It was a very good way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

Thanks,
