Cant believe this weather only made around 220gallons. and now were goin from 80s back into 20's at night and 45 during the day. Hopefully we get more sap. Not looking good. if its over. then its the worse season to to date.

I've got to check my woods in the hills. At the sugarhouse about half of the sugars were budded today, but in the higher elevations I might be OK. Going to check tomorrow because the forecast calls for 28 tonight and 20 Monday night and in the hills is usually 5 degrees colder. Might need to dump first flow because of 10 days no flow but then I might start again. If it does start again I could get another week if the forecast is close. The 10 day now shows 29,20,33,34,28,33,39,38,41 and 45 for my lows and with the hills colder it could salvage some of my season even if I only get C.

We are all cleaned also. Just turn the pump on this afternoon not sure if Iam milking cows or sucking sap. Boy is that stuff milky. Going to try tomorrow again if it cleans up will see if there is any sugar. Good luck to you. Let us know what you are getting.
