Broke down...

12 years ago

and wrapped some lights around it. Maybe unnecessary as it's only supposed to last one night...but, this guy has not had any kind of protection for years now, and has likewise, not seen temps like this for years. Just would regret not doing something, and then seeing serious damage. Good luck to everyone pushing the limits out there.
