The second picture is our rudimentary set up for cooking sap. We have made A LOT of Maple Syrup this year. It's been a lot of work but we are set for the year for sure!
Woza... that IS unusual, right?
I'm not going to do any comparisons... because while it's beautiful here right now in July a vacation to hell will seem like a break in the heat.
Wow, this is craziness! What a total bummer!!!! Thanks for sharing your maple syrup set up. Looks like a ton of work!
Today was nice here... I think it got up close to 70 today. I was outside working in the yard all day... still not ready to plant, but getting things ready to go.
Yesterday though... we did have some strange weather here with these little round balls of snow falling out of the sky. Then, the sun would come out, and the snow balls would melt, and then it would do it again and then the sun would come out. I think it did that like three times yesterday...
So, I take it you won't be BBQing today? Wow, I could do snow for one day, but that's it.
I saw a sign, probably photoshopped, for IH 35 here in Texas. It said, "Oh My God, it's snowing, we are all gonna die!" We have no clue how do drive in that kind of weather.
We all better get ready for this "new normal".... or actually a return to and older normal...
We have been blessed by a warming trend from about 1979 to 1998 but since then the warming stalled. Now the sun is going dormant, some scientists are predicting a Maunder Minimum like period. That coincided with Little Ice Age.
There now is some speculation that all the warming gained since4 1979 may be gone by 2025.
Its about to get chilly and chilly is always bad for the globe.

And here is our firepit this morning! Unbelievable!!
This is unbelievable... its not just a few sprinkles of snow, its more like a foot! Are the temperatures supposed to warm back up today and melt this stuff?

Wow, that's a LOT of work sitting pretty right there! How many hours do you think you invest per bottle of it?
