We're starting to get into the season where the sun is warm during the day, and the nights are cold - perfect for tapping maple trees!
I skipped last year because it's a lot of work, and we didn't have a real need for maple syrup...but this year, we're going through more - Dad likes it in his oatmeal, and I like a tiny bit in my coffee. So today I found my spiles and other supplies, dug a path, and tapped our two big maple trees. :)
These trees are at my parents' house...this summer, I'll do some exploring and see if there are any maples big enough to tap on my property in Maine, and mark their location on a map.
Happy Friday! :)
