    Default Sublimes Maple adventure

    Hello all,

    3rd year backyarder and just found this place so wanted to say high and all that.

    Started out 3 years ago with 9 taps and getting a little bigger and better each year.
    Had a simple ground stove with 2 pan's and a home built barrel stove which held 2 pots.

    This last year I was running 5 different stoves at a time and had 20 trees tapped. Able to run 40 gallons of sap down to 1 gallon in about 7 hours between the 5 stoves.

    Next year want to have a suger shack setup so able to cook inside instead of outside and a RO system up and running to cut down on my boiling times.

    Located in SW Wisconsin.

    is there a good way to upload Pics of things at all so far trying to upload Pics I keep getting invailid file type.

    just a jpg. I'm a several forums and not really had problems getting pics to post but seem to be having problems on this one.

    Have done the resize of my photos and made them alot smaller and still getting the upload of file failed.

    Just use imgur.com or bbimg.com for pictures. They will provide a link you can paste in your post.

    I don't know why they don't just kill the hosting of pictures on this site. It's very clunky.

    also is there a way to view the threads with the OP topic first then the reponse after that? I click on a thread and it list's the newest responses and have to go to the end to read the first post and go, It just seems kinda backwards to me and wondering is there a way to view like most other message boards? Or I just might be missing something right in front of me on that.
