Well, the sap is sure running good today! I stored about 15 more gallons today, up to 35ish gallons of sap now! WOOT! I will probably start cooking it off Monday, and if this weather keeps up, I should be over 40 gallons by Saturday! WOOT!

(Sad the things we get excited about.)

I'm kinda bummed tho....I JUST realized my inspection sticker is expired... ....so now I need to inspect the dang truck. Hopefully he doesn't give me any grief about the HID's. And the E-brake is not working, so God only knows how much THAT will cost. oh well. I'll have to wait until next weekend to install everything. Bummer.

no way i could goof off with this weather.too dang nice to waste.

nice! pretty hard to beat real maple syrup.

my old gal is getting her first coat of BRG metallic/blk tu-tone today!
she's going to look so classic classy.
it's the color of the 2000's mini coopers.kinda hard to envision the color on the truck after looking at it on a little car though.
it's not your traditional BRG.she's much darker.he called this morning making sure because it looked so dark.i said,yup that's it!
