I presume that is a giant smoker of sorts.
Your apprentice is quite young. I understand they learn faster at that age.
You mustn't have Maple trees where you live!:DQuote:

No maple trees here, and if there were, it does not get cold enough to have a sap season.

The building to the right of the shack is a sauna!
Awesome set up Tim :tu
Yes sir, we're boiling sap! We've had a fairly good run for the few days it's ran. They've gathered just over 1,000 gallons of sap. I don't gather, I just do the boiling and bottling.
Rich added an RO system this year, so he figures we're removing about 50% of the water before it enters into the system to boil. Much quicker turn around time between batches. This year, our syrup is very light in color. Light as, or lighter than honey when you look through it in the light. And OH MY!!!!! is it sweet this year.
Shaun, that is my son Joey, he'll be 5 next month and he loves being at the shack. Nice to be able to pass this type of family tradition down to your children. This family has been making Maple syrup in this area since 1837 and it's an amazing feeling to be a part of this. I've been boiling for about 20 years now.
Nice, except for the bike. That take too much work!
Maybe you'll let me draft you up those Colorado passes!Quote:

I had some Santa Fe Chicken and Rice freeze-dried concoction lined up for dinner so that fatty got to go back. I regretted it immediately after starting in on the freeze dried.Quote:

That is one luxurious work bench. My wife would kill me (or worse) if I even thought about putting that equipment on our dining room table.Quote:

What is that white line? Some sort of man made structure. [Could be aliens.... :D]
To me it is the dirty water of rivers streams flowing into a bigger body of water.
I am wondering out loud if the dirty water is breaking the surface tension of the water so it is preventing waves and their reflection or if the water is warmer and melting ice chunks close to shore. :hmmm:
Cool picture.
Run off control, making land mass?
This was shot by the astronauts on Apollo 9 and the “little white line” is the barrier islands which make up The Outer Banks of North Carolina, where I live. To the right (east) is the Atlantic Ocean, to the west of our “sandbar” are the Sounds — brackish tidal waters fed by NC rivers. At the eastern most point is Hatteras Village.
