So much for Sunny Warm Florida

Yep, pretty strange when the state of Washington is warmer than Miami and Orlando........feel for you guys since you aren't used to it and lots probably had freezing pipes since your homes aren't built for it either!

Get some heat tape for when it happens again........and we know it probably will.

next time, fill the tub and pots with water. turn the water off at the main and drain the lines.

this is what i did.

Thank you, another excellent idea. After being here for this many years you tend to forget the things you lived with all winter back north that were a way of life. I can remember scooping snow to melt for water.

Yep, Mother Nature will be back and I will remember next time.
