Sap ran really well today. At the start of the day we still had the remains of last week's amber syrup in the evaporator so it went into a drum for bulk. By the end of the day we had improved to not only medium but light! I've never seen the colour come back to light once it had gone to amber - let alone in a single day!!! It's especially impressive since our taps have been in for over 4 weeks.
Mother Nature sure has a warped sense of humour. A month ago I would have bet that we'd have a terrible season given the messed up weather in December and January plus the fact that there was almost no frost in the ground and no more than a foot of snow when we tapped.
I hope everyone else who's still at it had the same experience.
