Happy birthday to the master! Those are some great maples, ours don't grow that big here. I like to split it, like to burn it, it's nice firewood.
Oh oh I have an old story! My family lived in St Paul and didn’t have a 4x4, snow chains, winter tires, or front w drive. Dad went to work everyday in an old Chevy Impala with rusted out floorboards. If you pulled the floor mat away you could see the road. School only got canceled once in 83 after an 18” overnight snow. I was at school before finding out. We built snow caves, threw lawn darts straight up, shot bottle rockets and bb’s at each other, didn’t wear helmets, just send it was second nature, ate loads of green apples and we lived! Played outside until bedtime….
We played outside until the street lights came on they were the good days oh yea we also only had a house phone no cell phones back then
