The happiest sugaring mistake

Well who would have thought that we would get tired of making maple syrup? On Sunday we were close to finishing up a batch of then gallons of sap, and we decided pack for the return trip to Milwaukee while it finished boiling down. We forgot about the project for a half hour and found the maple boiling over the pot and waaaaaay past the thickness we needed of maple syrup. What we found was a delicious Carmel/ molasses/ candy like substance. I geeked out and overdosed on the sugar. Here are some pictures of our fun times.
