First snow - 10/23/2012

The first snow of the season has arrived tonight.  I didn't get into the hives the way I wanted to the past few weeks, so I am hoping that the girls are in good enough shape to manage through the winter.  I really wanted to get lots of syrup into the hives before snow fell, but life got in the way.  I hate it when that happens.  It is supposed to snow the next few days, and then the weather is supposed to warm up again.  I will add some more syrup into the feeders then, and hope it will be warm enough for them to take it.  I'll definitely be adding some sugar blocks on top of the hive for emergency feed as well.
