The Beekeeper of Charlestown

I spent this afternoon with Rich Schumacher. He's a retired AT&T guy, who seven years ago picked up the hobby of Beekeeping. It was quite amazing to see the intricate connection between Bees and their keepers. i was researching an article I am writing for a local town paper, the South County Independent. Once a month I profile a local person for the paper. I chose to do this article because of the recent reports on huge losses of bee hives across the US. So in addition to the photographs, I'm now researching all about Honey bees.
