SUGAR SEASON WINDING DOWN

 If I can get out in the timber and gather up the wood I will have enough sap for one more batch.  Plus I've got plans for Beau and I to go paddle fish snagging below the lock and dam on the Mississippi River before I can get out in the timber.

Several full bananas are hanging from the trees which need to be emptied.

 

Last weekend I was fortunate enough to have several visitors out in the sugar bush.  On Saturday Ryan and Roger came out and helped hull wood and gather sap.  Then on Sunday Mary and Clayton brought  some friends by for a sap/tea party.

Soccer season started this week with warm weather.  50 +  boys signed-up.  We'll see what the count is after 3 weeks of conditioning.
