Got back into it this year . Last year I couldn' t participate. I'm glad to be back at it. I put in 47 taps about three weeks ago and pulled them about the middle of last week. Got three and a half gallons altogether. Still have to do it while working which makes it harder to run the evaporator. Bought a Yamaha rhino to collect with, way easier on the back. Looking forward to retirement to do a little more of it. I think it's mostly over in my area. Upmep
