Maple syrup, chickens and a monolithic dome! This week we went to help out my parents working on the maple syrup and hang our for a bit. We of course had to check on the chickens to see if they had any eggs for us. The past week was a little crazy and we tried to make the best of it.
Thanks for watching!

Who says us city dwellers can't be getting in on the maple syrup season. While I'm trying to make a black walnut syrup I figure I should tap my maple tree also so I can a decent sized batch of home made syrup. Get ready for a big seed sale coming from my favorite company Mary's Heirloom seeds which is celebrating 10 years of selling seeds this month.

We got a new mic windscreen or deadcat and I really wanted to test it out so while E and Mrs. Citystead were off decorating a float for the festival in town we had a boys day out. Just a little fun at the park and a little walk through some nature trail. This is really a video for me and my family but thought with so many of you getting vested in our lives a little that maybe you would enjoy seeing the boys running around playing.

After running into someone who watches our videos it got me thinking a little about why I enjoy YouTube over any network television show out there. Not the highly produced and completely scripted videos that land on trending a lot but the videos people make of their everyday lives. Their not perfect like a sitcom because they are more real, sure they are the better part of people's lives but they are their everyday lives. Also I found some lettuce in the front edible garden that was hanging on so I moved it into the greenhouse.

Well this check up had thrown me for a loop. After seeing the top box filling up, I knew they would need more space and added another empty box. With 3 weeks passing by I thought for sure they would be drawing some comb on the new frames only to find out that they haven't really progressed the hive any since my last check up.

I usually get so excited for the first cider mill trip of the year but this year it just didn't seem very exciting. With everything going on it really was a let down, but we tried to have a good day anyways and turned it into a little camping like day with cider and donuts. Also will I survive teaching my daughter how to drive the 4 wheeler

Well I finally pulled the rest of my tomatoes! With snow looming on Halloween night I knew it was time to finally pick the green tomatoes. Now to see if I can get them sun ripened inside the greenhouse. Also this video has possibly the best song ever in it. Scroll down to find the link to a my new friend's music video.
