The sun came up over our little wooded hill just as the Royal Wedding completed. I did get up at 4:45 am. There was a moment in the ceremony when a sense of peace and well being came over me during the very sweet and quiet song “The Motet” sung by the choir of young boys and men.
“Wherever charity and love are to be found, God is there.”
It was as if, for a moment, the whole world stopped to allow a peaceful happiness before taking up the difficult challenges of the day.

I downloaded the official programme here is the link http://princeofwales.gov.uk/content/documents/RWOP_V2.pdf

The BBC is now filling in the time, while photos are being taken inside Buckingham palace, by interviewing people who have been waiting.The emotional British people crying as they sing “God Save the Queen.”

My companion for the viewing finished the butter when I wasn't looking..I managed a picture

This saturday Bob picked up the package of bees in the morning and kept them in the laundry room until later that day. The next photo shows Bob in his bee suit with the package on the hive. He will spray the bees down with some sugar water and then remove the can on the top — he will shake them down and then dump them into the hive. Then he puts a mini marshmallow in the hole of the Queen cage and places it in the hive. The workers will eat through the marshmallow in three or four hours and release her. All went well. Today, Easter Sunday, he took the little bunch of grass out of the small hole, allowing the bees to leave, and looked inside, noticing that there was a big bunch of bees where he had placed the queen. Since the day was warm, there was activity around the hive and I saw a bee on my flowers on the front porch! I guess we are on our way.

Here are photos of the “family” that now lives in our house in Lake Elmo.

Governor Walker and his union busting Republicans have awakened the sleeping wounded giant .. I think Labor will be a big factor in 2012.

I added a little Wisconsin logo to the Labor buttons we picked up at a picnic last summer.
