I was wondering if the fires impacted your hives. Glad the damage was minimal! 😊

[@hefleyhives]

Check out the next video. I wouldn't consider it minimal

[@tonyvanoostrom3501]

Very sorry to hear that. Those were some crazy fires you guys had. Look forward to seeing the video. Hopefully you can recover from the damage and impact relatively quickly

Incredible they survived even that amount of heat and smoke. Also incredible that wax didn't ignite and continue to burn the whole pallet! When you smoked that hole I'll bet they said "Oh Sh!+, here we go again".

Just how in the crap did that not set that completely on fire when the wax started burning 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️. Well if you need a medium super you have got one now by just cutting the bad bottom off . Have you got your new truck in service yet??. Thanks for the update. Thanks

Getting closer on the truck. Dealing with the fire set me back about 3 weeks

Maybe you can sell this honey as “smoked flavor honey” lol. Glad it didnt get them all!

[@hefleyhives]

I had thought something along the lines of "honey roasted"..?

[@barkersbees]

@@hefleyhives oh yeah roasted honey sounds lots better!
