    The solace & serenity of watching you people in motion. The connection to nature, trees, sap & your harmony with it all.
    Felling a tree - you obviously know what you are doing - safety first - & efficiently getting the job done. For 'others' that may have watched. Metolious mini biners (pack of 6) sold in climbing shops, weight bearing; could be attached to the rope that went up & connected around the upper tree. The pull, 2/1 systems with biners and/or pulleys and then a re-direct if necessary; for example, if the tree fall is to the S, the redirect is set up so the rope pull (humans) are to the E (or W); the tree falls & it gets no where near humans. This evergreen trees is less ominous than a large deciduous.
    Hopefully soon, new 'fresh' groceries arrive in your abode - that will keep smiles on your faces. I've friends, some that went to central AZ , others to Red Rocks Nev; temps are warm there. Days ago a brother who lives in S Central AZ delivered a fresh bag of grapefruit, orange and lemon. He flew back home Friday, & we have 3 inches of snow today.
    I wish I could share them with you; you share so much with 'us'. Thanks

    I have been watching you for years now and enjoy every weekend. I really liked this one as you were talking about your lack of supplies. It reminded me of the time I was in the US Navy on a cruise in the Indian Ocean On the CVN-65. Not your normal cruise ship. In 1976 we were on Bicentennial Cruise ran out of food after 30 days mostly milk and eggs . That was along time ago and you only remember the good times right. So One thing I I wish you would do is turn those branches you burned up into fish habitat Next time. instead of burning them tie them into a bundle and when the ice melts but a long rope on them maybe add a few rocks to sink them and put them off of the bank and tie the rope to a tree so it does not float away and become a hazard to navigation . That provides cover for the small fish that either turn into big fish or food for the bigger fish. It's a Salmon Habitat method that we use on our Salmon Habitat project on the Sol Duc River WA. I have been working on this project for 25 years as a volunteer and have found this to be a great cheep way to increase the survival of these fish.

    At my parent's cottage in the Laurentians of Quebec they use to say "la glace a calé". The ice sank. It refers to how quickly a lake would go from ice covered to open water. Seemingly as if the ice sank to the bottom of the lake overnight.

    Truly a gift from God we call "Treasures from the Trees"... We've been collecting sap and making syrup from Big Leaf Maples in our area near Seattle WA for about eight years. We visited the folks om Vancouver Island during their Big Leaf Maple Syrup Festival to learn from them. What kind of Maple trees are on your island? We are still learning when the sap will run - temp swings, etc. Thank you for sharing your adventures with all of us - He is Risen! 🙏🤍🇨🇦🇺🇸

    Have you considered putting a brush pile on the lake to create structure under the water when the ice melts? Perhaps this isn't legal in Ontario, or the depth isn't great enough in front of you there.

    An Aussie/Kiwi here asking .... what do the trees use the maple sap for ?? If you're draining that much from the trees doesn't it weaken the trees ??? I'm not criticising, just trying to understand the entire process of harvesting and making maple syrup please. God has blessed you with a most glorious part of His creation to live. Thankyou always for sharing it with us who have no other means of experiencing such majesty of our Lord.🇦🇺 🤗💞🙏👌👍✌️👏✝️🇨🇦

    • @EFRT
      @EFRT  Před 2 měsíci +2

      The sap comes from ground water, which is in unlimited supply, so taking some buckets from a tree doesn’t hurt it at all. The more you take the more it produces. The sap of eventually helps to form the leaves. 🍁 Maple syrup has been produced in this area since before Europeans came to the continent 👍🏻

    Might have been better if you took the power saw to the branches of the tree while on the roof, lighten the load of the treetop before trying to take it down.
    This way the chances of it getting caught up in the neighbouring trees are lessened.
    If you were staying there full time and only leaving to get the essentials in town, I would suggest getting a few chickens for the eggs and meat. They don’t need a lot of care and can be fun, depending on the breed.

      @@EFRT - after I posted that comment, I though of a few other low-care animals you could keep for more food if staying at the island full-time.
      One is rabbits for meat and the manure for compost.
      If you are feeling more adventurous, then you could try goats. Those would give you more than meat…like milk and different forms of cheese. You don’t need a lot of goats, just one male and a couple females.

By the time it's all finished we will have 23+cm on the ground. mmm I was hoping the snow would end but alas that's what you get when you live close to mountains.
