TREEmendous Maple Photos Sampler

I am finishing up editing a book about the old sugar maple in the back of our yard. It has inspired many people with its resilience.

This is how it looked 23 years ago when we moved in.

This is looking up into the hollow core.

Mamoul

 I  heard a story on NPR about a woman that needed help with her English on an airplane flight and there was a stir on the plane. An Arabic man came to help and solved the language problem. The woman was so happy for her problem being solved that she took mamouls out of her bag and handed them out on the plane. He said it was the best airplane flight he ever had. These goodies are made in many cultures and religions....and they are fun to make.
