My run has been way less consistent than Run Forest Run's and Yellzee's, but boiling down my last batch like crazy as Kyle Baker kindly offered me 25 gallons of sugar maple sap...so making a little road trip tomorrow morning to try and take at least 16 gallons of it! Then boiling like absolute mad to get the sap at least on its way to syrup before it turns.
Yep, once I'm done boiling my life can resume its normal boring course...but during tapping season...don't come between me and my shiny object!! LOL!!
Been tapping since 2008.
