Punderson, although it has a very poorly designed Campground, is a winter wonderland.  It has ample snow and things to do in the snow.  It's the only or at least the only close-to-Cleveland electrical-available winter camp. It is about an hour east of North Olmsted, Ohio

HEAVY SNOW --- BELOW ZERO WEATHER

January 16

A number of Alberta Clippers have left about a foot or so of snow on northern Ohio!  Temperature at Punderson as I write this is ... 3 degrees.  The trip out led us through some slush and a bit of ice but we are here!  Supposed to be another clipper on the way, too!  Sledding should be super.  Mike and Chris Pechura should be here, too.  We just got back from a nice walk.  The moon and the stars are out.

January 17

A great-warm-comfey night!  Snow squall warnings for up to twelve inches of snow today!  We are considering another extension cord to run a total of three sites of electric.  That will allow us to run three 1,500 watt heaters.

January 18

A great walk to the water tower and fun time all day.  We went to Longos Pizza.

January 19

Below zero weather was handled by the three heaters with nooooo problem.  Tons of snowmobilers are here.  In short, a neat weekend.  We were perfectly warm across some of the coldest temperatures of the year.
