Got the call this morning that my new RO is at the dealer. The only problem is that I don't have the room ready for it yet!

ps:i,am doing the firewood thing today.
I will have pictures tomorow night. Too busy around the sugarhouse. Getting ready to pour a pad for the holding tanks. Too much to do in too little time.
Very nice new rig, and Andy with the new R.O. Wow things are happening in maple land!

Just finished bricking up my evaporater tonight. It turned out rather well,
looking forward to see how it's gonna do with the insulation board and completely bricked up. This past spring I had just stacked the bricks along the sides and put sand in the bottom ,because I knew I was going to move
it after I built the new sugarshack.

Good luck with the ro. Hoping to have one here soon so I can add more taps.
I have been adding taps at rte.11 (mostly reds) now up to 926 there,,,cant decide if I am going to set up the 400 more easy to get taps there...land owner says I only have 3 years left there,,,,,thinking about it,,,,,went up to hill and got 300 more spiles changed over to stubbies,,,waiting on the welder to finish my mainline tubing spinner and I am going to be adding-changing lines up in Hill...need to redo about 300 taps on a hillside,,,bisect the very long lateral lines with some mainline,,,mabey pick up another 200?,,,
Mornin' all,
Haven't posted here much since the end of the season last spring.
So, I figured I should do an update.
The wood shed is full and the boiling appuratus is all together ready for sap!!!
We are gong to try the CV's and the stubbies this coming season.
Some folks say they won't do any good with gravity, but I have seen my drops full of sap and just sitting there for a couple of days and that can't be good.
If nothing more the taps will be new every year and that should help. I think!!
Got the yard work all done, now bring on the snow!!!!!!
Guess that's all for now.
Everyone have a Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Can't wait for spring!!! Just bought a new to me 3x12 raised flue. Planning to use the new pans on my old arch for this spring, and put the new arch in the new sugarhouse I plan to build next year. Going to try for 400 taps. Did I mention I can't wait for spring??:) :)
