Good God People! Something needs to be done, this has been going on far too long.

On March 22, 2026 will be our last open day, then the doors will close, my bees will go home and join their sisters. Thank you for your continued support of my dream, each of you made such a difference.

Please welcome Colby Logan, the new shop owner of the “Eye of the Beholder”. Best wishes my friend!

Remember always Bee Kind, and again mil gracias (many, many thanks).

It is time. After a lot of going back and forth, I decided that my shop La Bee da Loca will be permanently closing our door at the end of March 2026. Not an easy decision but one that needed to be made, this year I will be a year older but not sure how much wiser.

This has been an awesome run with my bees, I’ve watched as little kids that came to see my bees came back over the years and I watched them return as young adults, telling me how much they enjoyed my shop.

The support I received from my family and friends throughout the years was amazing, and I thank each and every one of you. For those that were there during the rough times (Covid) and helped me realize my dream would continue with their help as I fought this illness, thank you. The many wonderful people that I’ve met and shared their stories with me, thank you.

My son’s Emiliano and Javier, my partner Keith, my sister Cindy who planted the seed to build my dream but passed away before she could see it become a reality, thank you. To my friend Amal who was such a huge part of the shop, mil gracias!

For those naysayers who said a shop about bees would never work? Mic drop! I’m leaving because it’s time. No other reason, so on that note…

Bee kind to one another🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 much love, adios!

Ok peeps, just a heads up on my bee situation:

They decided to return to the BEEhamas because of the change of weather, just too darn cold one day and then BOOM the temperature is in the 60’s. I have been informed by the queen (yes, we communicate) that they will positively return in the spring!

12/19/2025

Sooooo, the Bees have changed their minds, the Beehamas did not suit their idea of the perfect place to spend the holidays and came back. So now they are back home, a bit tired but all is good in the hood, oops hive. Welcome home my darlings!!

12/17/2025

We’ve decided that the weather has been extremely difficult for our bees at the shop, so they are taking a vacation to the BEEHAMAS until spring, we will not have the bees upstairs, sorry but sometimes my bees are more important and they need a a vacay, too.
