Trampoline Trouble



We have decided that we were not meant to own a trampoline. Last night some heavy winds came rolling in and took it for a ride up and over our back wall and into our neighbors awning and backyard. We think it has officially seen it's last day, unless of course Jason can piece it back together. . . again. This is not the first time. Several months ago we had another major wind storm and we were not home. (It seems to only happen while we are gone.) Our neighbor witnessed it catch air and travel up and over our block wall (approx. 6-7 feet high) and land in our front yard shattering into several pieces. We had to buy new bars for the netting that time and it took forever and a day to put it back together. The padding that covered the springs has all rotted away. When adults jump on it the springs come loose and occasionally pop off. So. . . I am not sure how safe it is going to be. . . especially for the kids. We have only had it for one year and I think that one year will be our only experience with a trampoline. Unfortunately!:(
