    What’s new?

    Work has been keeping me crazy busy. Still doing my normal job plus overseeing other programs. Was down with the flu and then pneumonia for a few weeks. Weather is getting nice enough to get on the bike soon.
  3. I got your card, thanks. The certificate expired in 1992.
  4. Thanks all. No special plans. Drove up to my moms this morning to help her with a few things.
  5. We’re in line for 8-14 inches of snow tonight into tomorrow. If we get enough, plan to get a ski in tomorrow. I was hoping to finish syrup this weekend but it’s been too cold for sap to run. Should run Monday and I will get one more boil in before wrapping up for this year.
  6. We got about 3” overnight. Another 3-6 expected over the next few days. Mid 50’snext week

    Traded cars today

    We looked at a red one but ended up with light gray.
  9. Gumpettes 2017 Outback has 90k miles. At the point of either keep it til it doesn’t run anymore or trade. We we back to the dealer we bought it from. There value on the trade was in the range I thought it should be plus we got 2 k off asking price plus a free hitch. Will pick up the 24 Outback Tuesday.

  16. 40 gallons is a good average but sugar content can run anywhere from 2-4%. It will diminish later in the season.
  17. Depends on sugar content.
  18. Just getting started on about 60 gallons of sap. On this small evaporator I may be done by 1 am… hopefully. 🙂

    The miracle on ice

    I worked at the olympic village during the games. My job was keeping the main entrance building clean. NYS Police were doing all the security and the top guy liked the job I did so gave me tickets to a lot of events. I also got to meet a lot of athletes as they all had to pass through that building.
  20. Was 44 years ago today. I was fortunate enough to be there in person. A couple days later I was at the USA v Finland gold medal game. Great memories😁
