Anyone interested in camping in Indiana today?

If you are, you might want to rethink it! Snowed again over night (Friday night - Saturday morning) and currently have 5 (plus) inches drop over Indianapolis. Not sure how deep it is where I live (near Anderson), but this is what we look like as of a few minutes ago.

For what it's worth, you can still camp at Indiana State Parks, but you won't have water anywhere, there are no entrance fees off season, and the campsite price is greatly reduced with the water for the state park is turned off.

However, I did have a great time this morning with my 730 John Deere mower-tractor with the attached snow blower-thrower attached to the front! And we are still sleeping in the camper tonight, as we do most week-ends, even though it's parked in the drive way! In spite of snow, we're still using the camper as much as possible.

So if you come to Indiana today.... be sure to bring along a snow shovel!





  • The people in Boston would probably look at your pictures and think, "Hey, not bad at all! I could go for that!" :D

    Did you hit your head on something? :)

    It is almost too cold to go camping in south Florida!
  • I heard it was in the single digits yesterday afternoon - that's a mite chilly for camping, even in one's backyard. :) I take it you aren't using the water system at present.

    Agreed, your snow-remover rig sounds like fun to use - and wayyyyy better than a shovel!
