Mack would like to report that there is still a lot of ice on the lake.  Enough that even a chicken like him feels comfortable to go out on the lake

The maple trees are waking up though so that is a good sign of spring.  They have been flowing slowly so far

Filtering the maple sap the filter gets frozen up this early in the spring and has to wait for a thaw

We have been working away on the sock machine to hook this peddle up to it.  Stay tuned I hope this weekend to have the sock machine peddling instead of hand powered

We will continue to melt snow

and time to work on the wood pile when the snow melts
