We tapped yesterday and today. Our rough count is 158. The yard trees and field edge trees ran last night, maybe two gallons per bucket. Looks like the woods aren't running as well yet but that's not surprising. Might collect this afternoon. The weather this morning was really beautiful-foggy spots, sun creeping up and shining through the trees, clear skies.

Collected 120 gallon from 100 yard tree taps , few more to collect in the morning, start boiling afterwards. Have about 40 more taps to do on tubing, all woods trees . Using 3/16. Looks like what I have tubed is working good. Taping with tubing is slow and time consuming but will be nice when its done. Will be a lot faster next year because it will already be built. When I'm done I'll have 100+ on buckets and 100+ tubes. Should be able to get to it in a couple of days. I'm thinking the woods trees won't start running by then. Ready or not, the seasons here. MAY YOUR BUCKETS RUN FULL
