It was some nice quality time for me to share with Lindsay and nature.  Sunday afternoon while we where leaving my relationship with Lindsay couldn&#8217;t have been better, my relationship with nature was at a serious low.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what happened, as best as I can deduce things. A bird had left its droppings on a tree, the tree was no happy with this and decided to get rid of this by secreting a bunch of sap and forcing the bird dropping of the tree and allowed gravity to take its course.  Unfortunately the my Acura was beneath that tree for two days.<\/p>\n<p>The result was a pool of sap slightly larger than a loonie with chuck of bird dropping in it sitting in the middle of my windsheild.<\/p>\n<p>After scrapping this across most of my windshield with my wipers I got home and put more effort into removing this.  Spraying and scrubbing with soap did very little.  It was a good 15 minutes into the process that I thought of using hot water.<\/p>\n<p>What I did to remove the sap from the windshield was scrub with warm soapy watter while I brought a kettle to a boil and then used the kettle water to finish-off the pre-warmed windshield.<\/p>\n<p>I hope my description of this process helps someone out.<br \/>\n<a href='http:\/\/mattclare.ca\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/05\/imalittleteepot.jpg' title='How to remove tree sap from windsheild'><img src='http:\/\/mattclare.ca\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/05\/imalittleteepot.jpg' alt='How to remove tree sap from windsheild' \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This weekend Lindz and I had our marriage perpetration course in a semi-rural part of Mississauga.
