So What Did Everyone Do For McGuinty Day?
Just wondering what everyone in Ontario did this past Monday?We spent all day changing drop lines to new check valve adapters,but Leader's fittings are obviously bigger,as I have livened up my tennis elbow,and the tubing tool is getting bent out of shape from extremely tigh fittings on the laterals.Finally finished today,got the bush tapped,around 400,now into the next bush to get it all tapped before Friday's snowstorm so we are ready to boil soon as the weather breaks
