Running Lines

Tonight I got another 110 trees tapped, even though it was raining a little. With no moon and black as pitch out there it was hard to get around to all the trees. It was my woods that I've been all through for years but out there in total darkness following the mainline around and out each lateral to tap the trees was difficult. It is amazing at how everything changes when you can't see, but my headlight worked good. So that puts me at a little over 200 taps. I stll have another bunch of woods to tap, I've already got the mainline up and most of the laterals. It will probably be around another 75 trees if I need them.

good luck. We are still to cold here. Whats the weather like down there? Is it looking good for sap flow?

We've been to warm most of the time, but the next week is looking more favorable with freezing nights and the days warming into the 40 degree range. Before work this morning I made a trip to Walmart and got me a light to go on my hat so I'll be ready this evening if the rain stops.
