Canned off everything this past Tues and ended season with 167 gallons on 580 taps. 55% light, 45% medium and 10% dark. Had one line with 20 taps on it that apparently ran on ground all season. Walked by it a few times as it comes into the mainline in a big swamp and just missed it and kept wondering why the mainline wasn't running good as it had some of the best taps on that lateral. Cutting off all the drop lines and going to try to go with replacing new drops and seasonal spouts every year. Got about 60% of drops off and lines flushed. Hoping to add about 100 more on gravity next year and about 10 more buckets and get above 700 taps next year. With seasonal spouts and drops, hoping Jan 15th will be go time and hopefully they will run for 8 to 10 weeks. Never tapped that early, so probably will only tap about 60% of them and then tap other 40% around Feb 1st.
