This is a picture of the septic mound two days ago.
This is yesterday. The top of the mound always melts first and the deer always come to eat.
I tapped trees a week ago yesterday. In one week I got 4 gallons. Had to cook it yesterday cause you can only store it a week. This was the result. About 4 oz. I had the heat too high and I boiled it too long, so it has turned into some kind of maple candy. I would rather have syrup, but I think I can eat this too. Today I got 6 gallons and every tap was still dripping pretty good, so I'll check the jugs in the morning. It got down to 16 last night and up to 46 today so that's why it ran. Won't get below freezing for a couple of days now, so we won't get much again until it does. Flows best when it gets below 20 at night and up to 40 or more during the day. Mother Nature makes the decisions and all we can do is hope. Stay tuned.
