The tulip blossom has unfurled. It's a bit leggy and lopsided, but we're enjoying this little bit of spring at our table.
And the sap is out back simmering away. We've been feeding the fire for the past five or so hours. We have many more hours to go until we have syrup. Simply astonishing how much work is involved to make this delicious treat. Oh, I do hope we have some ready to eat with pancakes this weekend!
The kids came out to check on the sugaring process. Apparently they have gone colonial. Colonial times that is. Aren't they sweet? I just love their get ups.
