While we were taking down the buckets today my little farmer noticed a few taps were still running. "Leave them," she said. "We can get more maple syrup."
We did. Those 5 gallons and 7 brought over from a friend and we're boiling in the house, on the stove, two pans, the exhaust fan at half throttle. It must be smelling pretty maply outside.
The end result: 2.5 cups of very dark maple syrup after 9 hours of boiling.

As the sap slows to a stop the motorcycle must start, from one adventure to another.
