Sticky mess on 10 Fwy in Fontana causes major traffic delay after semi-truck full of syrup overturns

Crews are working to clean up a sticky situation on the 10 Freeway in Fontana after a semi-truck overturned, spilling a truckload of syrup across all westbound lanes.

I thought sugaring season was over so I went to take my taps out and there were four gallons of sap in the buckets! Recent freezing nights must have restarted the flow. It will make light amber syrup but I don't care. It's still a bonus. I can use it to sweeten cocktails or make candy. I'm grateful to nature for this gift. #maple #syrup #sugar #trees #nature

For brunch I'm cooking apple pancakes and little breakfast sausages and serving them with maple syrup I made from our own trees. It's hard to get more New England than that. #NewEngland #brunch #food #apples #maple #syrup

It's only been twelve days since snow was flying but my maples have quickly gone from gushing to dribbling. I'll be lucky to get a pint of syrup from my sap. But I'm not complaining. It's my syrup from my trees (as much as trees can be someone's, not their own) and I'm grateful for it. #maple #tapping #syrup

Finally got my trees tapped. It's a little late in the season but I couldn't even get to my trees before today. As it is, I'm exhausted from traipsing through knee deep snow. I'll have to watch for a set of used snow shoes.
The sap is solely for self consumption so we'll see what I get. #maple #sap #syrup #tapping
