Roger Gervais of Wales feeds the evaporator with wood Monday, March 8, 2021, at Jillson’s Farm & Sugarhouse in Sabattus. Gervais cleaned the evaporator by boiling water in anticipation of making the first batch of maple syrup Wednesday morning. “The sap is really going to run good,” farm owner Ed Jillson said about rising daytime temperatures this week. Jillson said the last of 1,500 buckets were hung Sunday. “The season is starting right on time,” he says. This is the 22nd year Gervais has been making syrup at the farm. “The truth is we always say this is going to be the best year ever,” Gervais says. Daryn Slover/Sun Journal Buy this Photo
Amateur radio operator Scott Richardson of Berwick communicates Thursday, March 11, 2021, with another operator, in San Marino, Italy, from a picnic table at Range Pond State Park in Poland. Richardson said portable equipment allows him to communicate from parks throughout Maine through the Parks on the Air program and from the tops of mountains through Summits on the Air. “It’s a very diverse hobby,” he says of being a ham radio operator. “It has captivated me since I was a kid.” Richardson said his grandfather sparked his interest in amateur radio. “It was interesting to me,” he says, “that my grandfather could talk to people all over the world.” The antenna in the foreground sends signals to satellites orbiting the Earth at 17,000 mph.
