Finally got the season started! My son, on borrowed snowshoes, was able to get our 60 taps in at his house and mine. It looks like the sap should start to flow sometime this weekend. Game on!!!

Sounds great Jim! Was anything dripping when you tapped? We are tapping in Saturday. I was curious if we missed anything good with todays high temps.

Things barely started dripping today in northeastern MA. Didn't miss anything. I guess this super cold start is beginning to frustrate me :-|

Hey Dave, only a few "pings" in the buckets. Maybe 5 out of 60 had an occasional drip.

Next week should be an awesome week. My sugar house is just south of you in Somers. I tap in Stafford and in Somers.

Good luck!

Hi DaveB,
I am 1/10 of a mile from the Somers line. If I can break away from our operation I would like to visit you and see how an experienced operator runs things. I also want to see StartingSmall's new 2x6 Mason with drop tube, combo high and low vac. That thing just might be Turbo Charged!!!

I am pumped, havn't been this excited in a long time, I am so eager to see what that evaporator can do! You are welcome down anytime!
