We gathered another 800 gallons of sap yesterday. Some of it was yellow, some of it looked pretty clear yet. That puts us about 400 gallons over last year, but we had more trees tapped, too. The trees out in the open are done, but we have one loop in the lower woods that is cooler and those trees are dripping today. Looks like we still might eke out another gathering yet in a day or so. Syrup is dark of course, but it doesn't taste buddy yet and the buyers are saying they need dark syrup this year, so we may as well gather if there is enough to make it worth the fuel. The guy who boils our syrup has some low cool woods also and they are still dripping, so we might get one more boiling yet. Wasn't as good of seaon as last year, but it could have been worse.
