Our Text'art group spent 2 great days in Tervete, a Latvian camp which Lauma looks after in the summer. It's a lovely spot on the Rouge River just northwest of Hawkesbury. We did several nice walks, one up to the hydro dam that no longer is used for producing electricity, but has a very loud showy falls. It was a relaxing two days, with lots of good food and friendship.

We learned a few things about bees. That they don't
like to mess about on cloudy days, that smoke calms them, and that drones don't sting. Here are a couple of shots of the
frames from inside the box.
