A moment of silence

[3rdgen.maple]

Can I take this moment and have you bow your heads in a moment of silence for a fallen maple tree. She lived a long life and gave alot of sap over her lifetime. Sadly she did not survive to see another tap. I will miss her dearly and will think of her all winter long as I put her peice by peice into the wood stove. Thank you my longtime friend. :cry:

Drove by a spot, where a 3 foot maple that was one of the best produces in the area stood, just a memory now except for some beautiful clocks produced from the taping area of that tree. We bought the tree and heated our house with the 5 cord of hard maple for one winter.

Regards,
