Somitimes things have a way of working out

March 30th, 2012 at 12:28 pm

I stopped by mom and dad's house last night. They live less than a mile away. They gave me a $550 check. It was a payment for labor at the maple woods. That was on top of a $2,100 check they gave me last summer. They said that the two checks added together was 1/2 of profit from 2011 syrup sales. They really didn't have to do that. When I protested, mom said that was how Grandpa and Grandma used to do it.

So, that $550 is very extremely close to the cost of materials for the fence that will be going up this weekend. Wow.

    That was really generous of your folks, and it seems like that was just meant to be the activity that would lead you to be able to pay for your fence. I love when things like that happen. It seems like the maple syrup project offers insurance of more than just family tradition, as well. That is great!
