I did last night,had to catch up on something's on the farm so maybe boil or dump the rest I'm forced on call my turn just happens to be so if I'm home it will be the last. Thanks for the kind words forest how is your season going?

With two early season mini-runs I made a gallon of gorgeous light syrup. But that's it. No sap since March 3rd. Not a drop. (My signature is sadly up-to-date. )

Spring will eventually come up here and with any luck I'll be cursing these dry weeks. I can't wait to be over run with sap and deprived of sleep. Sounds like good times to me.
