Well a lot actually.
First I'll tell you that last weekend was Clovermead's Bee Olympics.
Four men this year volunteered to wear the bee beard. I had my turn last year to wear the beard so this year I got to be a spectator.
I was at the car waiting for Dad so we could leave. We got in the car and he asked me if I'd been to the bathroom. I told him no because I didn't need to go.
That's when he told me that I needed to see the bathroom.
So he drove to the main entrance and I went back in.
I got in the washroom line and waited. I waited and waited and waited. Some people can take more time than others when it comes to doing their "business".
Finally the toilet was free and I went inside. This is what I had to see:
Frames and frames of bees set into the walls of the bathroom.
Now if you do a little math, while you're doing your thing each bee is watching you.
Each bee has 5 eyes and there would be around 70,000+ bees per hive.
That translates into a lot of eyes watching you while you're watching them.

I figure this is as close to a beekeeper's dream come true as you can get.
While you sit on the throne you can look for the queen.
I also finally understood why I had to wait in line so long for the bathroom to be free.
With so much to see people were certainly taking their time.
After all, the job's not finished until the paperwork is done!
