Construction is moving along at our newest elementary school construction project Maple Grove!
Construction crews are working on installing heating and cooling units for classrooms, painting the second floor, and installing flooring.
The new elementary school will open to students at the start of the 2022-23 school year.
The first leaves in the spring of a spectacular maple: Acer palmatum "Katsura"
Photo made at the end of April in Trondheim, central Norway,
This is a picture of a Maple Tree that was shot from my bedroom window. Maple Trees are fairly common in New England. Its a very large tree and is even more beautiful in the fall when it changes colors.
Also stolen from Lady Moth's camera, but I made them as you can notice for the lack of quality ='D
Maple Juice is my little strange cabaret girl ♥ I also wanted to make more clearly photos of her awesome make up made by Rumpelstiltskin
PD: the "DAT BIG" hands xD
This is a macro of a tiny, new maple leaf. It was almost iridescent in the setting sun, and starkly set against the sky.
Before sugar houses maple syrup was boiled in large cauldrons at a camp site. The pot was tended till all the liquid sap had evaporated and all that was left was the deliciously sweet maple syrup/sugar. Essentially the process is the same today, just a smidge more modernized. What I didn't know was that up to the invention of any kind of food preservation the colonists and indians did not use maple syrup because it molded too quickly. The syrup was boiled past the syrup stage to the solid sugar stage then formed into cones. The idea was to get the maple sugar to taste as much like white sugar as possible because white sugar was a delicacy. So essentially our tasty grade B medium amber syrup would have been junk to the colonists. Food history is so fascinating!
I think trees that have room to show off are glorious to look at. Especially when they have an incredible blaze of red. It might be a red maple, but I am not certain. I was too dazzled to investigate.
Majestic, gorgeous but the golden color a clear sign of things to come, no getting around it Fall has arrived
The underside of the maples leaves. The leaves start as a deep dark red, but as summer progresses, the leaves change to greens and golds
Should have brought my other camera but I do not usually bring that one to work. Maybe I should since autumn has arrived. Going back to my other home (almost) on October 23rd to visit some dear friends from college. Up to the great northwoods. At least as far as Wausau, WI but maybe I will run off on Sunday early 50-75 miles more north to see the roads I knew so well once. Not sure if there will be any colourful display of leaves left by then but I will be home. And once again I will actually see stars at night!!!!!!!!!!!
