Maple Sugar Fest

Gabe, Roy and I went to the Red Oaks Nature Center for Maple Sugar Fest. We learned all about how maple trees are tapped for sap. We even got to help tap a tree and collect the sap. We tasted it right from the tree - tastes like water! Then we learned how it gets cooked til it's yummy syrup - or syri-up as Gabe calls it. I took a couple of pics.
