    You need to talk to the makers of Wii and have them make a Maple sugaring game for the offseason

    had to get the spot lights out but managed to get the rest of the roof on the shack tonight. Tomorrow I can shovel it out and then start putting on the siding....
    I'm considering actually insulating this addition and adding a ceiling as with the small home made evaporator \i'm worried it might get cool.... critters will be able to get at the ceiling insulation though... any idea if the pink styrofoam insulation you see around foundations and in basements is prone to critters chewing on it? thinking about putting it up on the trusses and then screwing plywood over it so the ceiling has some insulation.

    Patheron Im with you man. This just seems like one of those winters like the old days. No january warmups, snow, cold temps, no rain just a good old winter deep freeze like the days before Al Gore and Global warming lol. It is going to be a great year I can feel it. Im pumped and getting more and more ready everyday. Like the famous Patheron quote TSUNAMI SAP get ready we are going to drown in sap boys.
