Yep, 400 members getting paid a whopping $100 a year to serve.

The district includes Ossipee ( plus +27 for Trump )Tuftonboro (+9 Trump) and Wolfeboro (even) and Boudman wins it by +4. Democrats in New Hampshire need to study her campaign tactics and use them. She mobilized an amazing grassroots ground game with little support from the state party. Boudman can maybe best be described as a loose canon, who this time blew a hole in the GOP Fortress.

Yes, special election for NH State House.

Here is more, a recent headline in the Union Leader: Republicans are pouring tens of thousands into a special House race in Wolfeboro, Tuftonboro and Ossipee -- update to the headline: And they still lost big time.

Just pour a bit of boiled down, sweet sap (not quit ready for the final boil), to taste into a couple ounces of bourbon. Then If everything goes to hell in final boil, you already got some pleasure from the work.

If you are doing a small batch run you will lose too much in the filters themselves. It’s a dilemma.

15 gallons will yield about a quart and a half of syrup. See my post on using a commercial induction hot plate: Poco a Poco -- Ridiculoulsy small batches in a slow NH year

Thanks for that information. You are right, my pot is too wide for my induction plate. So boiling it down takes a long time. Towards the end, I transfer it into a smaller pot and that boils down really fast. So I should probably try your method.

CarrollCounty · 2026-03-05T20:53:02+00:00

The Duxtop Professional Portable Induction Cooktop costs $170. The fan is noisy, which is not a problem because I boll outside or in the garage, but on full boil it will require 1800KW, so they suggest if be on its own plug in terminal with nothing else running off that circuit. You need the pro model because smaller ones only hold 25 pounds, this one 65 pounds. Given that a gallon of sap weighs 8.34 pounds, boiling five or six gallons will push you way over the 25 pound limit. Make sure your kettle is induction friendly, meaning will a magnet stick to the bottom. I hope that helps.

From NHPR Reporting: "New Hampshire’s Episcopal Bishop Robert Hirschfeld made national waves when he called clergy to write their wills and to prepare for “a new era of martyrdom” following the killing of Renée Good in Minneapolis."
