But there are a whole bunch of people that are not only <i>not</i> afraid of bees, they like to keep them in their own backyards. </p> <p>And I’m not talking about farmers in the central valley. These are real live city people in Southern California who keep bees on purpose. And, if you get bees in your bonnet, they’ll help out. </p> <p><a href="http://backyardbkeepers.blogspot.com/2009/04/were-keepers-oc-register-helps-our.html" title="BeeCause">BeeCause</a> - Two Orange County chicks will rescue your bees, or if you don’t have bees, but want some, they’ll hook you up.</p> <p><a href="http://www.ebeehoney.com/zCA.html" title="Ebeehoney">Ebeehoney</a> is resource page for bee people who rescue for every county in California.

These are regular people like us, but with honey in their bloodstream. </p> <h2>About the bee artist</h2> <p>“Tiny Bee” is by Lisa Mertins, my friend, fabulous artist, Orange County Register alum, whom I begged to illustrate my blog for me, but alas she didn’t have time. But do think about hiring her for book illustrations, web site header illustrations, notecards or wedding invitations, or whatever you need. Mertins does all kinds of art. <a href="http://www.lisamertins.com/" title="Life Illustrated.">Life Illustrated.</a> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </td> </tr> <tr valign="top"> <td><a href="http://www.dirtdujour.com/"><img src="http://www.dirtdujour.com/images/coupon_spot.jpg" alt="Visit dirtdujour.com" width="225" height="147" border="0" /></a></td> <td style="padding-left: 15px;"><img src="http://www.dirtdujour.com/images/email_sponsored.jpg" alt="Sponsored" width="219" height="58" /> </td> </tr> </table></td> <td align="center" valign="top" style="width: 120px; padding: 20px 0 0 12px;"><a href="http://www.dirtdujour.com/sign_up/"><img src="http://www.dirtdujour.com/images/email_sign_up.gif" alt="Email Sign Up" border="0" style="margin-bottom: 10px;"/></a><br /> <a href="http://www.tomatofest.com/" target="_blank" title="Click to visit Tomato Fest"><img src="http://www.dirtdujour.com/images/uploads/tomatofest2.png" style="border: 0;" alt="image" width="126" height="250" /></a><br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.dirtcouture.com/see-whats-new/african-violet-globe" target="_blank" title="Click to visit dirt couture"><img src="http://www.dirtdujour.com/images/uploads/dcadsmall.png" style="border: 0;" alt="image" width="125" height="250" /></a> </td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" bgcolor="#714300" style="color: #2c170b; padding-bottom: 10px;"><img src="http://www.dirtdujour.com/images/email_compostpile.gif" alt="Compost Pile" width="600" height="56" /> <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="padding-left: 20px;"> <tr> <td> <a href="http://www.dirtdujour.com/item/raise_your_hand_if_youve_got/" style="color: #be7c4f">Raise your hand if you’ve got….</a>, May 18, 2012.<br /> <a href="http://www.dirtdujour.com/item/you_can_do_this_/" style="color: #be7c4f">You can do this ...</a>, May 17, 2012.<br /> <a href="http://www.dirtdujour.com/item/dr_huey_strikes_again/" style="color: #be7c4f">Dr. Huey strikes again</a>, May 16, 2012.<br /> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center" bgcolor="#2c170b" style="color: #8e5503; padding-bottom: 10px;"><img src="http://www.dirtdujour.com/images/email_dirt.gif" alt="" /> <a href="http://www.dirtdujour.com/sign_up/" style="color: #8e5503">Subscribe</a> | <a href="http://www.dirtdujour.com/sign_up/#unsubscribe" style="color: #8e5503">Unsubscribe</a> | <a href="http://www.dirtdujour.com/about/#policies" style="color: #8e5503">Editorial and Privacy Policies</a> | <a href="http://www.dirtdujour.com/contact/" style="color: #8e5503">Contact</a> <br /> 17602 17th Street, Suite 102 #142 Tustin, Ca. 92780-7915<br /> All contents © 2012 Dirt Du Jour</td> </tr> </table> <br /> <br /> <br /> </body> </html>
