Tappin’ Time!

Posted on February 28th, 2014 :: 6:50 am by Greg

It’s almost time to start tapping our maple trees! March is just around the figurative corner. The days are getting a bit longer, the weather a bit warmer—right? It is, isn’t it?—and with all of that comes maple sugaring season! Last year was our first attempt at the art of maple syrup making. Much was…

Maple Sugarin’!

Posted on March 16th, 2013 :: 12:00 amMarch 16th, 2013 :: 12:03 am by Greg

We’re trying something new this spring: we’re sugarin’ our maple trees! It’s fun to see how things are made, and in my opinion the best way to see is to do. The process began a while ago, when we talked about doing it. We live on a small, quarter-acre lot in a somewhat urban-ish setting….

Backyard Ice Rink: Update 2013

Posted on February 15th, 2013 :: 12:46 pmJune 22nd, 2013 :: 6:02 pm by Greg

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times… Well, actually, this year it has not been the worst of times. Sure, we’ve had our travails, but nothing like last year. This year’s version of the backyard ice rink has been much more successful thanks to wisdom gained from past experience (read:…

Project: Backyard Ice Rink (Part 4)

Posted on January 25th, 2012 :: 3:00 amJune 22nd, 2013 :: 6:02 pm by Greg

A few people have been asking, “So how’s that ice rink of yours doing?” In that most of them live in the same region that we do, and have experienced this unusually warm winter along with us, I usually give them a wry smile and then gauge whether they are truly up for the full…

Project: Backyard Ice Rink (Part 3)

Posted on January 7th, 2012 :: 5:25 amJune 22nd, 2013 :: 6:01 pm by Greg

Who knew that this project would have so many hurdles and barriers and pitfalls? I knew it would be work, but aside from our being novices in building an ice rink in our back yard, we have also faced plenty of challenges from the weather! Check out the forecast: 50º right now, and not a…

Project: Backyard Ice Rink (Part 2)

Posted on January 3rd, 2012 :: 4:00 amJune 22nd, 2013 :: 6:01 pm by Greg

(continued from yesterday’s post) We had heard that some people do just fine by stitching two sheets together with waterproof tape. I did a bit more research online and found waterproofing repair tape was indeed a real product, and might actually work. And it might have, had the weather cooperated. And, had the second piece…

Project: Backyard Ice Rink (Part 1)

Posted on January 2nd, 2012 :: 5:25 pmJune 22nd, 2013 :: 6:01 pm by Greg

We’ve got a project underway here at the Campbell home. We’re trying to freeze a large portion of our back yard. (Well, more accurately, a large quantity of water, covering our back yard…) One thing is for sure: we’ve learned quite a bit of what not to do along the way! It all started with…
