    Default cold

    Warmed up this afternoon out of the freeze for about three hours. Less than a hundred gallons from 400 on vac.

    Likewise. We've made some great tasting syrup, but need a gradual warmup.

    Small run yesterday, smaller run today. The rest of the week holds promise, but we're still tapping. If all goes well we're headed for an all time record number of taps starting tomorrow.
