Yes, go!

There have been many trips where they've called for rain or cold all weekend and we still go.  I load up extra plastic to enclose our EZ-ups, and/or put up the Dome, and crank up our propane campfire (don't worry, I allow for ventillation).

It could be worse, I guess.
 
We had frost a few nights ago, then continued rain and cold, soggy drizzle for the whole Memorial Day weekend. I feel like our pretty Pod is nothing but a $14-thousand driveway ornament.
 
But, I've got a close friend (at least he was until I texted him this morning) who has a boat docked a few miles north on the Mississippi that cost him at least 10 times that much. I sent him the following friendly text this AM: "Did you get a good start on your tan this weekend, Mikey?"
 
His response: "Bite me..."
 
It's getting a little cranky here in Minnesota.

It's supposed to hit 88 deg here today, but I'll always take the heat to the cold. Frost - Memorial Day - burrrrr.
