What?? Who looks forward to winter?  We’ll I do when I’m starting out my little sugar shack for boiling maple sap.  Of course, there’s a looooong way to go before it will be ready, but here’s the first step: clearing away some of the top soil.  I’ve got it oriented to the south to pick up some solar gain and I’m working on drawing up a plan for a rocket mass heater for boiling.  Stay tuned for details!
