Schenectady-Albany-Saratoga Counties

Trees did run pretty well all night it seems. I should have 100+ gallons to RO down today then boil. This should ensure it won't be the lowest production year for us.

It's so funny how similar we all are...I also listen for the peepers as the indication it's coming to an end, they've been out the last few nights in a row here! It froze again last night, down to 27-28F it looks like. If it's going to do anything more this is the chance. It will be almost 70F this afternoon, but it drops down through the weekend so if I get a haul I should be able to process it by Sunday.

Nice, I had to leave early and didn't get a chance to check mine but my neighbor was going to take a walk out there and let me know. Crossing my fingers!

Woah! I'm heading home now, my neighbor said the pump was reading 28" of vacuum when he checked at lunchtime so that means it's running solid...may still have a season yet! Will report back.
