I've put in 76 taps so far today. I still have another 10 to do but I wanted to put away my equipment as it started to rain.
Hoping for a good season!

Tapped 15 buckets around town today. Sap was coming out well from the drilled holes.
My 80 Red Maples on tubing are running fair to slow on vacuum.
Was around 50 degrees at mid-afternoon.
