Hey ben. . .

Don't rub it in. Now you gotta stand in the corner for 5 minutes.




Me? Frost proof hose bib on the back of the house. I leave the hose connected year-round.
The front hose bib gets disconnected; the hose is stored in the shed and the line to the spigot is drained, and one of those styrofoam 'caps' goes on the spigot for good measure.

thorseshoeing, thanks for the thoughts and prayers.
I need them; it just dropped to 52º.
I better put on another tee shirt.

00BlueOvalRanger, you wouldn't believe how many times I've had to stand in the corner.

But on a serious note, I'm somewhat envious, because most/all of you have the four seasons, where as I only have two seasons, day and night, with copius amounts of either overcastness and/on fog.

Do what I do. Try to deal with it as best you can, and have a beer.
