It's the end of January. Now I start obsessing over the weather forecasts to decide when I should tap the trees for making . Last runs of tubing will go up this weekend.

It's still early, but the first couple weeks of Feb might be decent, then it might cool off for the rest of the month. I've made a lot of syrup tapping early, and with vacuum and check valve spiles, the trees will run until April...just not sure I want two full months of craziness.

Will have to just keep watching and take my best guess. This winter has been weird and overall warm. Don't want to go too late either.
