I can see the finish line now. Another week to go. Silver maples may get buddy today or tomorrow, sugars will be ok. Up over 41 gallons bottled. Topping my previous best season by 12 gallons...and who knows what's yet to happen here at the end. #maplesyrup #maple #maplesugaring
Clearly child labor is a problem. The company advertising in my Insta feed is most certainly hiring 13 year old boys to name their products. #laserpecker
Hit 30 gallons for the season and we're not done yet! Some of the biggest runs are probably yet to happen. This is the most syrup I've produced in any season. Last year was the previous best at 29.2 gallons. #maple #maplesugaring #maplesyrupseason #maplesyrup
Slow lately. Not horrible to get a break though. Bottled up what I boiled last week. Another 5.8 gallons. Just over 16 gallons bottled up this season. Still February. Looks like it's going to get nuts again. #maplesyrup
Did some #rocketry today with the club. Went 5 for 5 on flights. No long walks. No broken anything. Great day of flying.

Finished this little gut-punch of a book during lunch. The story hits home; having grown up on a farm where there were a lot of small farms (key word: were). https://sneezingcow.com/ #book #bookstodon
