    That is what we are doing....heading up Thursday at noon and spending the night. The wife and kids are going to the water park on Friday while I go on the tours. Should be a good time had by all. Hopefully it will be cooler.

    were any Traders at the Quebec boil-off or know the results? I went to the link and it just talks about the time of the event- but no results.

    Actually, the wife and I are getting the weekend alone. Usually it's me going to these maple events, and Lisa hasn't seen many other sugarhouses, so she wanted to go this year.

    Is lunch provided for on Friday?

    You can wait until the last minute and then get stuck sitting in the last row by the bathroom. All kidding aside I hope you have a great time. I hope to make it also but still not sure if I can. I will be the last of the last person and probably have to sit on the john
