   Well, guys, I am ready, for the weather to warm up and let the sap start running. I have spent the last two weeks refining the Sap buggy that Dsd built back in 1966. It needed a little refreshing, and some TLC after 48 years. HeHe. The other tank is even older, made from a T8 Case spreader. Had to do some major welding repaire to the riser hitch, after the uncle tried prying it out of the frozen ground with the bucket on the 5230. Gerrr! We decided to hang another 150 buckets today, as we fear that when the cold snaps, it will warm up quickly and the season will be short and sweet, pun intended. Loren

Loren,a sure sign of spring "sap-ah-run'en" and a nice look'en combo. May your pails be full and sugar count be high this year. It's been awhile since I had a saturday off kinda strange to sleep in till 6. Did some simple math at work with the guys we figured I logged about 425 hrs. of snowblowing since the 1st of year (thats ah-lota go'en backwards). I actually saw a wee-bit of gravel poken though the driveway years past it would be a muddy mess by now. Well better go throw the bread heals outside in hopes of seeing the robins come back. God Bless
