    Still holding out. Picked up 125 gallons last night, so trees were running a bit. Will pull the buckets this weekend, as they are just about dried up. Mini freeze early next week, so we may get another small run and that I think will wrap it up. Reds are getting scary looking. A couple of 50 deg. days this weekend and they may pop.

    Well.... it seems like leaving the taps in for this weeks cold weather was a bust. Not much flow to speak of thus far so pulling taps this week to end a decent season. Good luck to all that are still going strong!
