@@beefitbeekeeping It is truly amazing how those bugs in a box can bring us together, you know. Every year, after the conference, I come home energized.
Hey Brian! Another great opportunity to say hello, and catch up with good friends... even though you apparently didn't know who I was at Cracker Barrel (';')( ';').... I wish you all the best in beekeeping as spring arrives :)
@FrederickDunn It is always great seeing both you and Annette. And, lol, I was laughing. We're always trying to stay ahead of you with jokes. Hope you have a fantastic 2025.
Great video Brian! It was such a great weekend, thanks so much for hanging out with me throughout the weekend. It was awesome to chat as much as we did! Thanks for everything.
@LarryLeesBees Larry, I had a blast. Every day I knew we'd cross paths and chat, so that was great. I heard Emily use a line in her video, it's not the Equipment we come home with, it's the stories. That is so true. No value can be placed on the time we got to chat. Keep it up though. I enjoy your videos and getting to chat.
@ I’ve had a few things going on, spent 3 weeks in hospital and been off work for 7 months, I had an accident and nearly lost my right hand with the 4-1 bucket, got a piece of meat from my thigh on my wrist to get blood flow, metal plates and screws everywhere, go for another surgery in the next couple weeks to take bone and marrow from my hip and graft into my wrist, the metal on my ulna bone broke so the bone has been floating around for a few months already.
@theterriblebeekeeper7435 It was great meeting you guys as well. I always appreciate shaking hands and chatting vs. emails and youtube, you know. Look forward to seeing you guys again.
Brian that was a well edited vid! Another year, another great time! Good thing the weather held of 24 hours, could have been a disaster. We've been busy in the shop putting together boxes and frames, going to take awhile. Looking forward to a great spring!
I enjoyed watching your video. Thanks for sharing so folks like me who could not make it to the conference could still benefit. Hoping to be there in person in the future.
If you couldnt make it this year, plan on it next Jan ...I was there all 3 days this past weekend, I seen things Sat I didnt see on Thurs and Friday. I got some great deals and enjoyed talking to everyone at the booths.... The speaker was just tremendous!! Looking to next year!! Hope everyone made it home, cause I live 45 east of Louisville and on Sunday we got about 11 inches of snow and ice on top of that and more coming this Friday!! See ya next year!!!
It truly is amazing how bees can bring so many of us together from all over the world. I definitely came home with a post expo glow ❤

@@CastleHives I'm sure we'll run across one another again soon! Annette will be so happy that she made it into your video :)
@FrederickDunn We need to plan a day and get together. Maybe one of Greg's learning Yard days?
@@CastleHives All I need is to know when those gatherings are happening and I'd be more than happy to zip on over there! :)

Great recap Brian! Thanks for including us. Fred 😂 and poor Greg can’t say anything in 10 seconds 😂

@craigkirich9646 I was able to head home Saturday night, so I missed the weather also. Hope you have a fantastic spring, and 2025.

@@babinsbeestopbarbeekeeping7029 It is a wonderful expo, well worth it.

@pastormike1971 It truly is a fantastic expo. The deals on equipment offset the ticket price, so it is win win. Living that close, that'd be nice.
