This is Wayne Field, an apiarist (fancy word for bee keeper) from just outside Pontiac. He knows a lot about bees, of course. After he lost most of his domestic bees to disease, he imported some from Russia. They are very strong and resistant to disease, he told me, but gentle toward him. He often "works without a veil." I trust him on that.
By his expression, my guess is you two were wearing your spandex.
