It was sunny today, but a cold east wind off of Lake Michigan kept the sap from flowing. Its common during the season to have a few days of no sap, then a run for a day, maybe more, then no sap again. We have to be patient. In January logs were made in the woods. There are still a lot of tree tops around the woods. And stumps. We took down a large, old tree by the building. It was a nice tree and has been in many photographs over the years. It was sad to cut down the tree, but we have not tapped it for several years now. As the tree was large and quite old, we are all curious about how old it is. When we have a chance we will count the growth rings.
