We got off to a slow start, this morning. It was only 17F. The clear skies clowded over, and by 1:00PM temps rose to 38F, but we got all snow , and as I post it is still snowing. Were getting good old "sap snow", about 2" this afternoon. There were 6 of us, 3 generations of family tapping the trees. Today I was the elder 65 near 66, so I got to be the tractor driver. My uncle 4th generation will be there tomarrow, so we will put him in the tractor. We have a small group of windfalls from Huricane Sandy to clear in one section, so I will tackel that job tomarrow. I was not willing to cut them two weeks ago as the trees were still lodged in others and "Loaded" The recent winds dropped them to the ground, so I feel safe cutting them from the root balls tomarrow. I will post more pics tomarrow night. We hung 650 buckets today. Planning on hanging 1000-1200 total, so if all goes well we will just be waiting for the sap to run after that.
