2 Days snowed in planing next season

Thanks CavemanCharlie for the tips, Door county is the pennisala near Green Bay Wisconson that juts out into lake Micigan. It has a bay side and lake side with a lot of shops, sight seeing ,fishing and restaurants. There is a couple fish boils I would like to make one of them.

Hi, because I'm no where near you I have never heard of Door County and don't even have the slightest idea of what state it is in. Here in MN I usually stay at County Campgrounds. MN has a lot of them, they don't have the amenities of big parks but, are usually quieter and are set in more natural settings. Maybe that is something you could check into for Door County.

I was born in Aurora, my parents lived in Minooka until I was 4. I think I had relatives in Naperville.

If you ever get to this area the Iowa Great Lakes region around Okoboji is a good vacation spot and is only about a 10 hour drive from you. If you ever go there I can give recommendations. Have a nice Day

We had a cold one last night -45C or -49F

It took 3 hours to shovel out the driveway

The kids are loving it though, they have not returned to school yet from the Christmas break. It is looking like they will be home again tomorrow.

Hey it warmed up today....it was around 0! tomorrow is supposed to be around 5. just wait till the temps for Sat.! supposed to be high 30`s!!!

On Door County. we stayed at the Jellystone up there with the kids. I can`t really can`t comment on any other campgrounds. My backup was Wagon Trail Campground on Lake Michigan. It looked really nice, and the reviews seemed good.

Good luck. now back to work for you guys tomorrow!

Yep, 18 inches of snow and the windchill was -25 here in Michigan today. Kids are out of school for the third day in a row tomorrow because it's too cold for them to stand out at the bus stop.

I've been planning my vacations as a way to distract myself. 3 more months and we can dewinterize and get moving.

I couldn't agree more, my son live in South Carolina and I get the warm weather jabs from him through out the winter. Of course last night he was crying because they went down to 14, and I didn't feel too sorry for him. :)

You want get those today! High today was 29. However, that is not the norm.

Heard I81 is closed for 50 mi N of Syracuse with up to 50 inches of snow expected in the next 24. Our friend E of Watertown and a GP Dr was snowshoeing to his patients. N Va is 9 and clear. We have talked of moving to Fl, Tx, Ok, or Ar but I'm a disabled Vet and my wife wtill works. Have to wait til she decides to retire.

Living near Chicago we've had 14 inchs of snow and wind chills of -40 for 2 days.......I'll be interested in your experiences. Is anyone else planing or should I say dreaming of greener CC?

I used to live up in your area and sure don't envy your situation. You need to start 'planning' to be a snowbird! Going to be 80 tomorrow down here!:C
