We went to Norskedalen (the Norwegian Valley) today for their "Sweet, Sweet Spring" event. It didn't feel or even look like spring, but the smell of boiling maple syrup was in the air. March is when they start tapping the maple trees for their syrup. They served an organic breakfast of pancakes with maple syrup, eggs and sausage. We went for a ride on a wagon which was drawn by horses. They had a blacksmith demonstration and Jimmy came home with a new handmade hook. The boys did lots of running around and falling on all the ice. Despite the weather, it was a fun morning.
