We almost got caught up yesterday so shut down the evaporator early with a little sap left in the tank. I am off for the March Break, so wanted to have at least some sap to boil today or tomorrow. Was cold all day, so not expecting much sap. Went to do a quick sap survey about 6pm (Loving the light at night!!!) and immediately rounded up the collection crew. Another 120-130 gallons collected. So LOTS to boil today and tomorrow.

Right now I'm staring at 6 batches of syrup needing finished, filtered and bottled. I know what I'll be doing for the next several hours.

For any of you close to me - if you're around this week and want to pop by for a visit, drop me a PM and we can arrange something. Forecast looks like we will be boiling a lot.
