Sun and Sap

 Finally, we had a day with temperatures above freezing.  Even though the day started at 5 degrees, the sun came out and warmed things up. It was delightful.

 the new sap buckets.  These traditional buckets are courtesy of a kind neighbor who had extra. And they do look nice.  Thanks to the warmer temps, I gathered about 9 gallons of sap today.

 Meanwhile, the cold frames are warming up, and i even saw a couple of sprouts beginning to poke their heads out of the dirt.

65 degrees inside, 20 degrees outside!

No chick flick today. We will be back tomorrow!
