Bee update

Checked the rest of the hives tonight.  Lost two hives very recently.  No dead bees outside, or in the brood cells, so I think the queen died over the winter, and the hive just died out.  So we have 4 deep supers to spin out in the morning, (probably 40 pounds) and then let the good hives clean up.  If they were diseased, we would burn the equipment instead.
