Wow, the forecast keeps getting better and better for next week! A couple of days ago I was wondering a bit about why everyone was planning on tapping this coming weekend. The temperatures I were seeing were just +1 and maybe +2. But, now I am fully on board too as the forecasted highs keep increasing more and more! Sunday will be the day for me to tap and I am excited to see what happens next week, especially on Tuesday and Wednesday. I hope everyone has a great season. There's not very many feelings better than the start of syrup season!!!
