22) Learn how to make Maple syrup

Yes friend part of my job is to give Maple syrup tours and I also got to be involved in setting up the maple line. Though I have not actually seen how maple syrup is made, I feel like I can cross this one off the list because I am learning about it and will get to help make it soon.

I also got to taste the sap straight from the tree, it tasted like watered down sugar.

Oh and another fun story so we use snow to cover up the huge barrels that the sap will be stored in, and today as we were putting snow on the barrels we found tons of soggy cheese sandwiches in the snow.  I guess Wisconson snow likes cheese just as much as I do.
