What the Hell Happened to Spring?

Well I have to say I am very quickly getting tired of this winter. My good friend Jeff was just finally able to tap his maple trees about 2 weeks later than he has in the past few years. By now he would have gallons of sap and be well on his way to producing surup.

I like to help him tap the trees and I usualy make a few images to document the process. I didn't get the chance to help him this year, so I'll have to visit him and help him boil. It's a good excuse to shoot the shit and drink a beer or two. It's better than watching football.
