Edgar: Having grown up in Connecticut (now live in Texas), I have fond memories of going to a sugar shack in Southbury every spring (I think in April) to buy several pints of fresh-made syrup. It was kind of a ritual of spring and something I looked foward to not just for the delicious maple syrup, but also for the knowledge that warmer weather was just around the corner after months of cold winter.
Thanks for posting. Is that receiver in the background a HAM radio? I'd imagine it helps pass the time when you're boiling the sap all night.
