    Default Well my season will end tomorrow morning

    Its been a lot of fun, and I wanted to thank everyone here for all of the knowledge passed on and for what I learned.

    My stats for the season:
    35 Taps
    176 gallons of sap collected (3/1-3/28)
    180 gallons of sap given to me by friends who had too much
    Countless refills of propane
    1 destroyed pot
    3.72 gallons of syrup made (Horrible ratio I know, if my math is right I should of been closer to 9 gallons of Syrup)

    Picture of my finished "Stash" and my OCD based data chart LOL

    thanks again everyone!

    Scott, that is one beautiful stash. Congratulations on a great season. I will get a few smiles in July when something out of the blue reminds me of your burned out pot story.
