We are sitting in the middle of an ice storm this morning. There is already an 1/8 of an inch of ice on everything , and it just started. I hate to see the end results. I hope to string some more pipe in the next few days I have a field that is a coupe hundred yds long. looking to put pipe on it and save some steps. got to go iI have ice to clean up. We have a 2hrs delay at school already and I expect them to close for the day. Got to get things cleared up just in case they do come to school.

I like your prediction for Ontario because I need more time! The foot of snow we're getting today won't make stringing the mile of mainline and three miles of lateral lines we still have left to do any easier.

Guys- Tomarrow morning Im the proud owner of a brand new cdl 600 gph ro. Now sure whether to be excited or not. Im a little apprehensive about running the thing but If the rest of you genetic defects can do it I guess I can too. I should have pretty much everything hooked up and done this weekend I think. I might even be able to fire up the vac pump on sunday I think. I think Ive got it figured out how to get some sap to the sugarhouse now im going to have to figure out how to make syrup with it. I think Im going to have a pretty easy fix just have to learn everything at once. Once I get the hang of things hopefully Ill be good. Keep you guys posted and hopefully I can get some pics of the finished product next week. Theeeron
