A short note from my wife, using the word SATS as a verb.
"We SATS, holding hands, HODLing, and for the first time, in a long time, had high hopes for the future".
The sugar maple trees are tapped and sap is flowing!

Sugar from trees, the maple syrup is one of the first yields of the year from the natural capital at the homestead.
Ended up with a total of 116 taps this year, close to double the taps from last season. Last year I started tapping all the trees a week later (and I still missed a week of flow this year), not to mention it took me a couple weeks to get all the taps in. This year I managed get all the taps in over just a few days.
While it's hard work to prepare the equipment, tap the trees, and process the sap into syrup. It's the first opportunity to spend a lot of time outside in the woods getting exercise. We get all our sugar for the year from the trees growing on our land. I'm grateful we have the opportunity to glean all the benefits and yeilds the process of maple sugaring offers and to have such wonderful trees in our own backyard.

Lovely! Thanks for doing the work.
Why, oh why oh why is nos.social being developed only on Apple??
I don't do Apple. Nostr is decentralized, Apple is not. I am seeing more development being done on Apple, which just really annoys me. If development is going to be done on a central platform, please do not tell me about until it is on a several centralized platforms. Thank you.
