I had someone complain about that as well a few days ago.. same screen shot from an non member trying to lurk,... its seems that if your not logged in and running ad blocker its not letting you view a page. Its definitely an adblocker issue as the Google ads are not showing up where they would normally be. Personally I think that if the ads are what keeps the site going you should turn your ad blocker off.. imho. lol Its quite possible there may be nothing we can do about it.

Ya.... what he said.... lol

Thanks Lew. Sad indeed.

Just started today.. slow but sure... looks like we will be able to bil the first big batch by the weekend!

Nice!!... Your gonna have ice till july.. lol

Only some.. very few, the ones high up and in the sun.

Ya everything is froze solid here too.. gonna be ten days before it runs agauin

screetching halt here.. got a few more tapped and some maintenance done.. well started lol. http://howtomakemaplesyrup.com/maplesyrupjournal/2015/03/22/there-is-unrest-in-the-forest/

just good and snug

7/16 is the universal size for spigots and tubes as well. buy a good one. ya cheap bugger lol tap in 1 1/2" and make sure its secure - but the leakage happens, sometimes if you drive it in too deep as well, a small crack under it will facilitate leakage.. (crap.. thats sounded like expert advice lol)

SWEET!! Literally!

Its more about getting the friends and family out.... http://howtomakemaplesyrup.com/maplesyrupjournal/2015/03/19/sapcicles/ Sapcicles for the next few days..

Ya Junes not a happy month for bugs... ive seen it go from nothing to unbearable in 24 hours on the may long weekend.

Crap.... cant believe i missed this thread.. life is so busy. now its time... 400 taps and counting... http://howtomakemaplesyrup.com/maplesyrupjournal/ Looks like another week for us before we start to collect!!

LOL.. its nice to finally see a photo on here thats not photoshopped...

LOL.. ya that was a one time thing.. lol...

I have heard that exact same comment from a CO. Bad counts, inexperienced counters, sometimes students and receptioists.

Must have been your group then.. cause for me its never ever been about who had the best equipment with the guys /gals i hunt with.. it was always about who could shoot the straightest, and the friendship, and maybe the exhausted evenings glass of rye.. Been skunked many many times and never considered the trip a "failure" unless i lost at poker... then.......

I try to show off my 1964 sears and roebuck 30:06 with the cracked stock.. nobody wants to see that "bling" lol.. Huntings much much more than what equipment you have.. lol.. thats only for steelheaders and muskie fishermen!! LOL.. Im gonna get some blowback for that one!! (oh and maybe carp fishermen...)

LOL..

New regs may be coming down the pipe... what do you think?? Whole story here: http://mnrwatch.com/ontarios-sweeping-moose-project-proposal-leaves-hunters-reeling/

I have a good buddy of mine that wnats to set his parents up with a good ice fishing vacation in northern southern ontario lol... Hes looking for a place with decent accomodations and some decent fishing this winter. Its an aniversary present i think, so it should be cool.. I have a handle on all things north, but need some good sugesstions for him down south??

Love that song.. oldie but a goodie!

Those are crazy pics.. ill never complain about winter again... well thats probably not true..

LOL.. The typical caanadian winterfest, have a beer and whine about the government... tis the season!!!
