    3,000 gals sap collected so far today. With everything cleaned last week, grade went up to light.

    I'm seeing a few more freezing nights in my area next week. You think think this season will keep going...?

    5,000+ gals this run. Top of the hill is still running, gas it up to run out of gas at 9pm. I expect my higher bushes will go through the week, if so I could have a record year. Time to go boil.

    Still getting sap from three sugarbushes. Collected around 1,000 this morning and boiling now. Grade is very dark and flavor is excellent.

    OK so what's your total sap and gallons at this point? Ron redrilled some taps today. Gone past our all time high. Hell be able to look tom. Hope you're feeling OK to keep going like this. Take care out there. We' re thinking of you.

    Not sure on the sap, but syrup is 1,125 gals. 11 gals behind last year, but sap is still coming in. Just very slowly. Tomorrow should be my last boil. I've already started cleaning up and have till April 11 to get it done. Of course next week is really cold, but I could use a little break. Maybe I'll see you at toms.

    Done for the year. 1,137 gals made. Glad I tapped early, but pissed I missed the biggest run of the year because of my cancer surgery. ****ing ****hole cancer. Yes, those were not good words!

    Maybe not good words, but the right words.
