Remember the Bees?

I have been busy at work so I am recycling posts from the Vault of Herb.

R.I.P. bees or is there a new Borf for bees?

I found this odd street memorial to the mysteriously missing bees this afternoon near the corner of 14th and S NW (behind the Garden District). I'm not sure when it went up but it wasn't there last weekend.

Jesus candles and abandoned honey combs






A bench is in front where one may sit in quiet reflection on what we may have done

UPDATE June 19, 2007:

This is the work of artists Matthew McGuinness and Eliza Newman Saul as part of SiteProjects DC .

UPDATE June 30, 2007:

Wonkette commentator Disinformationministry believes he has located the missing bees.

Where Are the Updates?

Herb! You have not posted in a week. What am I suppose to do when I am sitting on my iphone wasting time during the work day?

Dear 16th St Reader:

I apologize for not posting but I have worked the last two weekends and am not in a posty type of mood. Fear not though, I am going to recycle some items from a year ago this month from the Vault of Herb before my readership exploded to tens per day.

Enjoy!

Regards

Herb
