070414 - 2007 Maple Syrup day @ the Farm

A fun and enjoyable time was had by all at the 2007 Maple Syrup Day on the Farm. Family, friends and lots of children (13) were in attendance. People enjoyed fireside chats, playing in the barn, cats, pony, tasty treats, walks to the Falls and of course, the delicious maple syrup. This year we had some visitors from far away; Washington, Tokyo, and Dusseldorf! The weather was crisp but tolerable with good company and warm fires.

There are those that could not be with us today and those that have passed on. Even when not present, somehow we all meet up at the Farm on days like these. The spirit of Family and friends is what this event and the Farm are all about. Thanks to all those who attended.
