Join
State Park
staff and National Park Service volunteers from the John
H. Chaffee Blackstone River Valley National Heritage
Corridor to learn how to gather maple sap and make it into
syrup. It’s our fifth year and the program continues to
expand. This year we have added a newly built sugar house.
Visitors
learn the basics of sugaring including identifying maple
trees, tapping techniques, and boiling the sap into syrup.
You can help us tap the trees and gather the sap. The
program also explains how you can start your own sugaring
project at home with items you may already have and the
purchase of a few inexpensive taps.
There
is no cost for the event. It is great fun for kids of all
ages. Come on by and find out …. how sweet it is!

My niece Elisabeth in front of
the Biltmore Estate.
To celebrate my niece's 9th
birthday, I took my brother's family to
Asheville, NC to visit the Biltmore Mansion.
The Biltmore was the home of George
Vanderbilt, grandson of Cornelius Vanderbilt.
Instead of building a "summer home"
in Newport, he had the vision of creating a
working farm in the beautiful mountains of
western NC. The 250 room mansion was designed
by Richard Morris Hunt and the 8,000 acres
were landscaped by Frederick Law Olmsted,
creator of our own Boston Gardens and Commons.
We stayed on the grounds on the newly
constructed Biltmore Inn and truly felt like a
Vanderbilt for a weekend!- Laurie Guptill

Now that my
wonderful neighbors Brian and Stephanie have
moved, I'm searching for someone willing to
take my Gordon Setter, Jessica, out for a
walk on rare occasions. Will gladly
compensate in cash or favorite beverage or
something else appropriate. She
just needs to be let out to do her
thing, long walk not required. Thanks! Jane Seamans, 1
