Willow Creek Sugarhouse taped!!!

Got all the taps in on the vacuum line. Was running like crazy then the sun went away. Turned on the vacuum and all I have to say is WOW. got about 40 gallons sap in less then 10 minutes. has 25 "Hg from releaser to end of the line couldn't be happier. Can still put my hand on the vacuum pump for about 30-40 seconds. The new hobby releaser seems to be doing OK. it only stuck in the open position 1-2 times but we'll see!!! should be boiling tomorrow!!!! gotta get the rest of the taps and buckets in tonight!!!
