After floundering a few days on the decision, with the forecast staying, and becoming more favorable, I started getting ready. This could be a very good run for me here. All the forecasts call for Sunday and Monday 41-45, a reset of 28 Monday night, and Tuesday and Wednesday 45-50...
Cleaned out and organized my little sugarhouse yesterday, broke out my vacuum system, and tested good after replacing the vacuum gauge. All my mainlines hooked up. Ready for sap!
Tomorrow I tap, Saturday to Bellows Falls VMSMA conf, and more tapping Sunday.
Should be ready to test my Home built Pro RO!
Update...
