step three is convincing the wife that every improvement is going to payoff as soon as i get another stainless milk tank for my for sap collection, come on atleast they last forever .. so it must be a good investment lol

Step 4... Contact other local sugar makers in your area and see if they have similar sickness. If they do then refer back to reply#3

I'm a mail carrier in my town. I have every tree on the route identified and the best ways to run tubing in the larger woods. :D

I have been snowmobile in northern New Hampshire and look at those untapped maple trees.

It is most definitely a sickness just ask my girlfriend.

That sickness is called the "maple bug". It is caused by the desire to smell maple sap boiling. Sufferers of this disease have been known to spend large sums of money on shiney stainless steel and plastic tubing to satisfy their addiction to the smell of maple sap steam. There is no known cure!

All equipment and supplies really should be stamped with Surgeon General warnings about the risks and long term effects.

I have to be careful when driving, as I have been identifying sugar maples on the side of the road wherever I go. "Gee, officer, I don't know why I was swerving..."
