That's more like it.

After gathering a few gallons of sap this weekend and making a half pint of syrup, we had two days (Sat/Sun) that were so warm at night, no sap came out. However, today was a different story. We gathered eight gallons of sap today from our 20 taps. Some of the colder trees (deeper in woods) are just starting to produce. A few out in the open produced 1-2 gallons just today! It's sealed up and stored in the shade and snow for this weekend.

Down here in the Bay State, for the past two days, we are getting an easy two gallons of sap per day, per tap. The weather outlook predicts good running for the next ten days. If so, we will be swimming in it. :-)

Best of luck with your sugaring.
