Started the evaporator at 10:30 AM.  By 5:30 PM we were done boiling the 150 gallons of sap we collected yesterday.    And got one batch of syrup into the milk can.  Its not a big batch, maybe 2 gallons, but its something.  Syrup will be dark this season based on the first batch.  Warm weather will cause that.

 

The weather forecast is for warm weather through Sunday.  And now 60s are forecast too.  Not what we want.  Such a change from just a week ago when the high was 12.  Today was 53.  It did freeze last night as there was ice on the puddles.  But sunny and 53 caused most of the snow to melt.
