I could just be a day when maple syrup is to be celebrated...not when it's tapped.

I love Michigan maple syrup. My brother and law and sister taught me how to get the sap and walk for hours in deep snow then at the end of the day watch as the syrup was made. Awesome.

We tried to make our own syrup one year many, many years ago. It takes soooo long to cook down.

We took our niece from Arkansas to see the Wright Brothers Memorial while she was here at Thanksgiving. Great place to visit.
