Got access to a new property and found this in an old boxelder. Think this tap might be dried up :)

That's hilarious! Don't think you're getting that pail off of that tree anytime soon :-)

Throw in a ULine plastic bag and a tap and you'll be ready to go!

That's incredible. I can't even imagine how long it took for that maple to eat those pails and lids.

BAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!! Go trees go! And I think I now know why the local cemeteries prevent planting of trees etc ;-) could get some funny tasting sap....
