The delay was while they waited on a bee keeper to come and get rid of the swarm of over 1000 bees. He stated after about 30 minutes a guy showed up in shorts and a t-shirt with a "Shopvac" like vacuum, sucked the bees into it, and off they went.

He was unable to get a picture due to where he was sitting. Luckily they weren't too late and he made his connection with some time to spare. Anyone ever heard of anything like that happening?
Glad they weren't too far BEEhind schedule
