The temperature is 22.3 degrees F and steady;
The humidity is 56% and steady;
The pressure is 30.06" of mercury and steady;
The USFS Forest Fire Danger is LOW.
These are the perfect conditions for maple sugaring.
Nights below freezing, and warm days over freezing.

Having gotten later into the season, with the sun rising at a higher angle at this time of day we are getting the bright reflection of the sun off of Cook's Pond again up here in the Lodge. The time change has also filled more of the working day with sun. Spring is marching our way.
With any luck we will get the 'run-down' mailbox back up and in operation today.
