Good for you!! Not much down here n weathers been good??
Today was my best day yet. I'm north of you in northern genesee county where things are flat.
Today was awesome. Slight overcast about 50 degrees out and pretty low air pressure. I couldn't believe how well it was running todayQuote:

When we left our bush at around 7 it was still flowing like in the video believe it or not. We will be might busy today!
I just watched that vid, I have never seen a tree drip that fast, that was crazy; I was always thought a drip a second was dripping real fast because it will fill my sap sacks; but hat was unreal
Monday was my best day yet as well. But I wasn't really impressed either. 53 gallons from 81 taps on gravity (buckets). I still have about 3 trees that have given almost no sap. Is this is as good as it gets? I thought I'd be swamped yesterday since Sunday night it froze and Monday was 50*F. Should I prepare for the floodgates to open, or is this it? I had planned on at least one busy week of feeling like I can't keep up, but now I'm not so sure that will happen. On the bright side my sugar content is averaging 2.7%.
I am in Allegany co. We got 300 gal from 240 taps. Last night when we shut down at midnight, our little pumps were pulling a steady stream from 5/16 tubing. Never seen anything like it. Also made the first lite syrup ever. We have always had med to dark syrup here. Weird year for sure.
yesterday was nice, pulled 15 gallons out of 17 trees for first year hobbying. already making plans to do more next year.
suns out here and its running well again on the vac line, but almost nothing from the gravity line....again. i was planning on just doing a bunch of gravity tubing but this spring has me reconsidering. what a difference
