Got all but about 100 taps pulled at sanborns,,(check valves) so far 2 of the balls were missing (but might have fallen out sepertating the adaptor from the stubbie),,,no where near as much snot as the regular adaptors,,,still have Hill to pull,,ray did rte.11 and hoit road...still looking over the numbers,,,trying to find mistakes,,,Marvin soaking,tanks washed,,,littel wood progress,,,I have seen that if I fixed my woods they way I do other peoples I would make alot more syrup,,,definatly need to install at least 5 more lateral mainlines,,,,trying to decide if I want to expand 900 more on rte.11 if its just for 3 years,,,will it be worth the investment and the rent of 90 cents a tap?? Say I get 20 gal/tap of 2% sap,(most of the new trees will be red maple),,but I am gonna need a bigger pump,,plus the expense of trucking,,,I do have more taps I could get elsewhere......Also trying to think of a good time for the next MAPLEHOLICS COOKOUT,,,was thinking mabey a band this time,(kinda mellow),,ideas??? steve says he can get lobsta
