Mike-- hope it turns for you guys soon. I know what tough years are like and when it goes from cold to warm. I pray for your sakes it doesn't. I made syrup up to the first of April which is about 10 days past normal end of the season so hope you guys can go up into May. Seems like some of the guys in Ohio and PA had a good year so hopefully it is coming your way.

I was able to get 1800 gallons today before it froze up. Tomorrow should be a very good day. Hey Randy is it possible to go get a new releaser so no production is lost? You can pay the dealer after the season is over. Then you have the off season to fix the releaser you're having trouble with. Once fixed keep it for a spare.

Made 4 more barrells today. That puts me over 1000. Should make another 1000 this coming week.

We made three more barrels today which put us at around 720 gallons on the year. All a nice medium, flirting with Fancy at times. We still have a lot of ground to make up so hopefully mother nature cooperates.

Hey ChevyPower sounds like things are going well. I really think we have 3 weeks to go. Snow was still two feet deep on the back side of my woods yesterday. Last year we ended on the 20th but I think mother nature is going to give us an extra week this year. The 10 day forecast looks great. Good luck to you.Originally Posted by chevypower

I hope your right, but I'm not so optimistic.. Sap flow slowed down quite a bit yesterday so hopefully the cooler weather last night will give the trees a good charge. Good luck to you also.

16 more taps this am. Over 600 gal so far and should make another 100 gal today.
Hey rusty I will gather your sap while you are gone today!!!😄😄
Be careful pulling up on Brian's property, hue is carrying, some stole his log splinter next to vac shack, looking to have some Shari law revenge.

I got 7500 gallons again today. Sap is still running a bit tonight but should freeze up later. Hope to have another great day tomorrow.
