A Sappin Good Time

The weather has been pretty good for sap flow

Our first batch yielded 5 quarts

Our very own "Pot of GOLD"

The Second Batch was 6 quarts - 

Looks like  the weather over the next few days 

should be perfect for sappin

Where you will find me...

In the Sugar Shack...

As the sun rises over the hills,

smoke from the sugar shack 

drifts across the crystal laden snow

the trees warm up, the sap begins to flow

Thick bubbles form in the pans 

then burst with maple scent 

reminding us the reward will be sweet 

the long hours well spent -

Finding your REAL FRIENDS

This really works -

Put both your dog and your spouse

 in the trunk for one hour

When you open the trunk which one is 

HAPPY 

to see you??!!

Winters Return

Apparently the signs were 

just a tease...

Bare Hilltops

Beautiful sunny days

Just when we were starting to think 

SPRING... 

Winter came again - 

4-6 inches predicted today.... 

more tomorrow

No worries though as we know it won't be long

and we will be tapping trees

Hello - hope you are well - we keep BUSY

  Happy for all the work in the shop,  

when the worries of paying the bills seem to crowd our minds –

we stop an focus on all the 

WONDERFUL Blessings 

that are in our life that money could never buy!!!  

One of our littleist most precious blessings

Sweet, Sweet Seats

Our Sweet, Sweet boy ;-)))  

Gotta love texting and Skype

While our home and work are in Michigan our Hearts are in Georgia

 Missing our wee Lil Man who is 1 month old already!!
