For those of you that can buy the Concord Monitor, today is the day!!!! If this link works you can read the article here: https://www.concordmonitor.com/Maple...demic-39388450 . If any of you producers in the area that aren't going to be open this weekend are out and about stop by for your last chance to check out my operation.

There wasn't much maple related stuff going on here yesterday. I made a batch of maple cream and that's about it. I have a couple of valves that need to be replaced so I'll be getting that done today. It was too cold and windy to attempt it yesterday.

That's one of the things that I like about maple Brad. The equipment holds it's value. If I just consider the money that I take in to the money that I spend I do make some here, but if I were to figure in a wage for myself I would always be in the red. That's why years ago I decided to make this a hobby business. If the IRS came knocking on my door I could easily show them that I don't make any money here.
