      He keeps on growing and continues to learn his job. Tonight when we dragged ourselves up from the sugarhouse, he was watching two tired people. It was a long, productive day.

      Chores were done at 4:oo am. We started getting everything ready to finish up the last of the sap at daylight. This being our first year using this set-up, it took a little longer than planned. It was successful and everything went very well, but it sure was a  long day..we finished up at 10:30 pm.

      Now, we need to get the “Syrup for Sale” sign up 🙂 Then, after that, we need to start the whole clean up process… and I suspect another very long, dirty day… good thing this is my dream job!

      The energy of the pup is astounding. He seemed to have a busy day too. He, however, ran to the house, dove into his supper and wanted to play. I wanted soup..no chewing and a hot shower. He laid down and watched us fumble with our food while we moaned and groaned…this getting old is certainly a pain!
