Sharing the Passion Giveaway Reminder

There is still plenty of time to get in on PTO's blogging anniversary giveaway. 

First of the 2012 draw to be bottled - looks tasty

The sap has been running and we have been busy boiling and bottling some CT Pure Maple Syrup - 17 gallons of it so far.  It has been running at just over 40 gallons of sap to one gallon of syrup and the evaporator does about 30 gallons of sap an hour.  1100 gallons of sap collected to date and that equals about 37 hours of boiling time.  Then it has to be finished on the stove, filtered and then bottled.  Truly a labor of love.  Tasty stuff that you can enjoy by participating in the giveaway contest.

My buddy Ray has provided me with some great items for the giveaway as well to include handmade grunt call, slate turkey call with striker, a pen and even a cutting board.  Depending on the level of participation in the contest I will giveaway all four items away or keep one or two for a future contest and let the winners chose their item.


I've been busy at the tying bench knocking off all the rust so I can ensure the winner of the flies gets some quality fish catching creations.  Ok, I can't guarantee they will catch fish, but I can promise I have caught fish on the flies I will tie and I am NOT  that good of a fly fisherman yet.  So if they worked for me, they should work for you.
