Well at least taking the no boiling time and getting some other stuff done bottled up a few gallons of syrup, doing some more tomorrow, bottled up 40lbs of honey, made a batch of cream which came out awe-some if I do say so myself. And some really addicting maple coated nuts. Tomorrow I will bottle up a some more and make a little candy.

Saved 10 gallonsof sap from the other day and added it to the Evap and just brought it up to a boil quick and shut it down to kill anything growing in there. managed to get a little sap today not much maybe 30 gallons but looking forward to tomorrow hopefully things will get going before Tuesdays freeze up. 10 day is looking better all the time although who knows really it has changed so many times!!! what ever happens happens....RIGHT?
