Out of storage into snow

   As I was taking our Pod to the dealer in Sheboygan (WI) for riser kit installation, I heard on the radio about the region of Wisconsin near the cities where the cross country ski trails were open.  I am happy that this last snow missed us.  I just cut out and chipped the last of the tree damage from a huge wet snow from December and hope that we are done now with this winter.

I de-winterized the pod and all is well.  This was the first year I did it myself, and all the discussion here made me confident that I wouldn't make my pod into a sprinkler!  Thanks.

	I totally sympathize/empathize with you! We took our POD to Tucson for the first 2 weeks of April, returned home to a snow clear drive on April 13. We awoke to 6 fresh inches of new snow the next morning. Long story short, we have had an additional almost 5 FEET of snow since April 14! It has finally quit (for the time being), the sun is shining and the snow is melting. We desparately need the moisture, but would love rain this time of year instead of the white stuff!!!! I'm ready to go fishing!!

	"The pod", is our choice of wording, but hey, we are from Michigan, so cut us some slack. We too have had some snow in northern Michigan, but not to the degree you have had. Yesterday I could still see patches of that white stuff on the northern facing slopes in the woods behind our house. Once the soil dries out enough so we can get to "the pod" w/o getting stuck in the mud, it will finally be time to un-hibernate the pod from out of the horse barn.
