Boiled all in on Tuesday. Shut down with enough left to cool the evaporator. I put a small electric heater in the fire box to keep from freezing the flu pan. Waiting for the next go around.

Tomorrow we're pulling the 109 that we put in last week and moving them to another woods where there'll be roughly 325-350 taps all on sugar maples. Tomorrow is supposed to be a high of 11 degrees but it's the only day I'll have help available. This coming Thursday looks to be warming up again through the weekend. We'll see what happens.

Collected 250 gallons today. Started boiling about noon while the boys collected and ran it till about 8 tonight. Didn't do any canning yet but there's about 7-8 gallons of syrup in the finishing pan. Will fire that up tomorrow after we collect and start boiling.
