The Bonny Bay of Biscayo, comes from Lena Bourne Fish of East Jaffrey NH, as recorded by Anne and Frank Warner. I thought of singing the old Amherst version of the song "How Come That Blood," but this one fit the mood of the day better. We spent the afternoon at Walter's house here in Amherst, and boiled sap in Walter's dad's excellent boiling contraption. The sun was warm but there was still a bite in the air. I saw my first honeybee of the season, and the red winged blackbirds were singing like crazy. Birds and children, smoke and syrup, warm sun and patches of snow... Today it snowed again, but not for long- it's getting warmer, but the sap is still running.
