What I Will Miss the Most


This is my favorite tree in our current yard. I love the bright colors it turns every fall. It's wide branches provide shade for a large part of the backyard. Two different years, the children and I tapped the tree and made maple syrup on our gas grill. It was an experience that the kids still talk about. Btw, making syrup from sap on a gas grill isn't a CHEAP thing to do. I can't even remember how many tanks of gas we purchased. But the syrup had a memorable taste that we haven't found anywhere else.
