Started the burner at 11:00 AM. Filtering by 12:30 PM. Finished bottling by 2:15 PM. Back to the farmhouse by 2:45 after cleanup. One full milk can remains. Good progress the past three days. 49 ½ gallons bottled so far for the season.
30 at 3:30 AM but dropped to 27 at dawn. Lake effect snow covered the ground in white but melted by 11:00 AM. Cloudy until late afternoon. Temperature in high 30s but ground stayed cold.
Tree gauge -5 PSI so trees are still pulling up sap. Anticipating the warmer weather tomorrow and Tuesday will give us another run.
