My gas drill's recoil spring broke yesterday. Went to the small engine place and they found one the same size out of a wrecked Stihl. My on/off switch also gave up and have to shut it off with the choke and it's on order. At least the recoil gave out when it started to really wet snow yesterday.

Got just over 1100 in so far and another 6/700 to go. The swamp is going to be treacherous to tap with the ice not being safe.

Went to a Pancake Tuesday supper at the inlaws church. They called me to supply the syrup, but I didn't have any. The got it from a local producer who had just made it on Saturday. It was extra light and it was disappointing to put on my pancakes and sausage.
