As promised, I finally got iMovie to work and play nice in order to cobble together the dozen or so 30-second and 1-minute videos I took during the maple syrup making process. You can watch that here:

For some reason I kept calling my 2-gallon maple sap collection bucket a 3-gallon bucket. It’s not. It’s only 2-gallons. Also, I think I mis-stated the temperature that the sap needs to achieve in order to become maple syrup. That temperature is 219-degrees. Some syrup producers vary their temperature to get it to 220 or 221-degrees but it needs to at least reach 219-degrees.
