With no real winter this year and the forecast not looking to good, my buddy and I decided we will tap this Friday. Let's hope for the best.

The season has been going slow but steady. No big runs, even after some of the harder freezes. Need more sunny days, but not when the temps are higher. Collected 2000 gal of sap so far and made 34 gal of nice syrup. Sugar % of sap is normal.
