We boiled seven times this year making a total of 19 quarts. Liz's boyfriend, Seth, visited from Cape Cod recently and helped with gathering sap and chopping wood. I always feel sorry for Terry having to work so hard for us to do this whole operation, so having Seth and Ian help with the wood was a real treat.
There was time for some igloo-building fun at the end of the afternoon. It was amazingly strong as you can see Liz and Seth on the top. After dark we put a lantern inside and oohed and ahhed at the warm glow. Very cool indeed. Thank you, Seth!
