Having fun making maple syrup






This last weekend we went up north with Aaron and Melissa to help make maple syrup with Aaron's family. I had never seen how maple syrup is made so was really interested in being a part of the project. Doug and I and the boys all pitched in and made some great memories during the whole weekend.

It is a long process and by the end of the first day I was really wiped out. I gave it my all since I love being out in the woods but then it takes me so long to get myself back to a productive state. I didn't mind, I got to do a big portion of it and then was able to watch the rest happen. It really was something I could get into doing, on a smaller scale though. I love maple syrup and use quite a bit of it during the year and now I have a greater appreciation for how much it costs.
