If you have a trampoline in your yard, which I think could be easily referred to as the "West Virginia front lawn ornament", you know the scoop. Every time we mow, we have to move the trampoline. During the fall, all of the leaves, sticks and nuts fall off of the trees and land on the trampoline. The debris gets up under the edges of the spring cover.... The spring covers do not last long on trampolines. Ours would get saturated with water and then we you got up onto the trampoline, your clothes and body would get wet from the wet cover and then when you proceed to jump, the water runs to the center, where you are. The top of the legs rust. When you move the trampoline, straining and twisting your body to get JUST the right leverage to move it, sometimes the legs fall off... It's simply not worth the few times it gets used. So, Saturday, I took the monster apart, with my dog watching me, and wheeled it down to the trash. Looks like someone has already come by and picked up the top piece to it. I am glad they got it before the trash company did.
