Maple Syruping

Well, after studying lodge pole pine trees, apple trees, Christmas trees, and family trees, I think the maple trees may well finish up our tree unit for the time being. And what a way to end! I have been to maple syrup farms several times, but not during the harvesting weeks. It was cold outside, but totally worth the several hour drive north. We got to tap a tree, boil the syrup down, and drink a little glass of the sweet creation. It was great. And we brought along a few friends to enjoy the day too.
