Not Your Ordinary Thursday

It's a beautiful day today. I can hear the chickadees beyond the crackling fire and hissing pots as we boil one final batch of maple sap into syrup. 

Around 7 am. 

Below, 3 pots over the fire at 10 am. 

I'm having 3 close childhood friends and their kids over for the afternoon and supper tonight. I'm so glad we moved "back home".
