Started taking down buckets and pulling spouts today.  25% to 30% are down already.  We’ll see what the weather is like tomorrow before continuing.  Snow is forecast and we may not want to take down buckets with snow on the ground because the buckets won’t dry out.

Bottled a milk can of syrup:  27 quarts.  Into the woods by 11:30 AM to get the syrup on the finishing pan.  Then started taking down buckets.  Syrup was ready by 2:30 PM for bottling.  Back to the house by 3:30 PM.
