The sap ran good here yesterday. I had 600 gallons by 6 pm and it was still coming in good on the vacuum. All of the small trees on buckets had stopped running by late afternoon but the big trees were still going strong when I gathered at 5 pm.

The weather looks kind of crappy this week but it looks good for Maple Weekend. There's 28* in the forecast for tonight and the last time it was supposed to be that cold it actually got to 23*. I hope it happens again. The long range looks pretty good for when I have to go back to work. I'm on vacation this week and it always seems to work out that way. The trees are looking pretty good here. If they can survive the warm weather this week I can keep going when it cools down again.

The plan is to boil it as I get it until Wednesday and then save it for Maple Weekend. With the freezes in the forecast for Friday and Saturday nights I should be able to have sap to boil both days.
