My buddy in Moretown VT had a 2x4 and also ran out of wood yesterday. Aren't there some unguarded wood piles over there you can raid?

I'm holding out as long as I can- kinda have to- those store shelves arent gonna fill themselves. Warm up this week? A minor blip on the radar!....With 3 vac systems on 3 different orientations, and a foot and a half of snow still in the woods, the pumps are gonna run until the lines are sucked dry....Besides, cooler temps are forecast for later in the week!
Froze again last night here in P town sap is gonna run. Wife asked me this morning "is some one stealing our firewood?"
"I'll catch them babe!":D hehehehe guess I'll have to turn myself in after tomorrow
i have a bunch of pine on my prop in ma on the vt line
What happened to the Woodchuck?
Been busy with some other issues- we boiled for the last time yesterday after a Thursday morning freeze. Made nearly a drum of B with ok flavor, but not anything wonderful. Of course, my father the purist deems anything darker than medium A as absolute crap. He still doesnt pay attention to our sales figures that say 40% of what we sell is Grade B.........All in all a good season- no complaints here.
Sounds like my dad when he was alive, if he made medium amber after the halfway mark, the buckets got pulled. Of course back then we couldn't give away dark syrup as nobody wanted it. But with enough preaching when we switched to pipeline and had a hard time making fancy, we convinced our customers that they really liked grade b., now with the bubbler we will have to convince them that they really like fancy again. LOL
