    Default Looks like a freeze up!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Did not run much today. Temps are starting to drop and looks like a freeze up for tonight and cold Tuesday and Wednesday and then starting to warm up again. Looks good to me! As of today we are ten and a half gallons ahead of last years bad season. Hoping to go right into the weekend and perhaps past that.

    A freeze up tonight sure sounds good! Hoping the sap will run here tomorrow afternoon. It was running in Merrimack this afternoon!
