It may have been cold and snowy but work still needs to be done. This weekend was spent attaching valves to drain the sap/syrup, adding dividers to the large pan, and filling the pans with water to check for leaks and welding the leaks closed. Pah! If only it was that easy to weld the leaks closed. I'm sure if David was writing this he would say it was a big f*#@ing pain in the a$$!! Seriously it sucked, but David was persistent and finished late Sunday night. Next tasked will be to clean out the tanks, do a couple of boils and we should be good to go for the most part. Wheels will happen at some point but we don't need them to at least start.
I love how still it is when it snows out here |
