Late Winterization

[bjarvis]

The hottub is now emptied and winterized.

We had originally planned to do this in the fall as we typically do every year but this time we thought we'd leave the tub running on the chance we (esp. Michael) might use it during the winter. That, however, hasn't happened. Worse, the electric bill for December arrived last week. Oy.

Earlier today, we cut the power to the tub and began draining. This evening, we scooped out the remaining water. Tomorrow, we'll wrap up the beast until spring.

We'll miss you, hottub!

So, the whole, "hatchet to the cord" thing is probably pretty satisfying, but wouldn't it have been easier to get going again next year if you had just unplugged it before draining it?

Weren't you going to put a shelter over it so you could use it year 'round?

Perhaps other compensations can be arranged.

We must speak, either via email or on the phone. I have questions to ask you. :-D
