"By failing to prepare you are preparing to fail." 
Benjamin Franklin

I've done it and you probably have, too. No, this is not a compliment. Instead, it is admonishment born of an all too recent memory of hastily grabbing towels, tape, tarps or anything I could find and running outside in the cold, wet, dark and icy weather to wrap my numerous pipes on the farm. Let's avoid the pipe castastrophe and wrap them now. And when that winter storm hits, you can grab a cup of hot cider and relax on the couch instead.

Heed the wisdom of our founding father Benjamin Franklin by winterizing your property. You will be glad you did.
