Pond nets buried under 9" of snow!
Well, I should have taken the nets off last weekend! Now, there's 9" of snow and I get my first real day off work in like 6 months! Sure, I've had a few days when I was dying and a few "holidays" where I cleaned the house and did work but today I get to play on the internet on a slow connection and do some reading and tape watching. Too bad my parents won't stop screaming and cussing! I spent an hour clearing snow for the chickens, the pond outlets, pond lighting (another busted under the weight), bench, air pump, de-icers (the net over them made a blanket and that got covered in sow), heat pumps, porches, etc. I ripped the net off my 153 gallon pond but don't want to tear my 1800 gallon net which is brand new! ---------------------------------------------------------------- Important Notice!

Pond nets buried under 9" of snow!
Hey, I can relate. It got all the way down to 40 degrees here last night.
The furnace in my house came on and everything! I tell ya, these San Diego winters can be brutal ; ) "Robyn Rhudy" wrote in message ... Well, I should have taken the nets off last weekend!
