I wanna camp

Snow on the ground here, and high temps for the day not getting above freezing.

So we are considering a quick getaway this weekend! Pull the rig out of storage and head out.

I have been going out every week and cranking up the heater and letting it run some. Since it is too cold to go camping, I have been starting to reorganize the inside cabinet stuff and trying to think of what we will need next camping season. I added a few things such as a cup holder on my side of the bed. Our RV dealer that was located about six miles from here is gone out of business, picked up a few things at 50 Percent off. Counting down the days until camping season begins.

It's a high of 7 today. :-(

Only another 4 months and we can get the TT back out and on the road again. Been keeping myself busy by checking out new CGs to inspect this summer.

Yeah, it's cold here in SE Ohio and SW PA. TT's are winterized and parked for the winter. Time to get out the skis and head for the mountain slopes!!!

Got to love Socal its going to be almost 80 next week and i am going camping sorry guys. I don't even know how to winter proof a RV so i guess i better stay in southern CA

We had our sub zero weather last week and weekend. Supposed to be 40's and 50's for a while here in Colorado Springs.
Still too cold for me camping. I must be getting old. :)

This continuous subzero weather is really putting a damper on my spirits. My truck tried to gel up on me this morning for the first time. Must have got some bad fuel. I need to be sitting next to a campfire somewhere. Booo.

Ok there, I got it out. Back to your regularly scheduled deep freeze.

I feel you pain. It's been so cold here that even though I'm running a 1500 watt electric heater in the TT and the TT is setting inside of a enclosed shed I still can't keep it warm enough in there to even go out and set in the trailer and pretend to camp.

if your diesel is starting to gel, add at least a quart of kerosene to it and that will keep it from gelling

Auggg, don't do that. Maybe in the old days but, times have changed. My brothers new diesel is so computerized it has to have specific oil. If you try to run the wrong oil it will screw everything up and it then cost you a lot of money to get it fixed. I can't imagine what would happen if you put kerosene in the fuel tank. It would probably total the truck. I'm not kidding!

Come to balmy Pennsylvania, it's up in the teens and 20's.

A balmy 43 here in West TN, but down into the 20's most nights lately. The conversation started yesterday about which weekend we're going back out camping before our yearly trek to FL for baseball - later in March. How do I know???? We've had 60+ degrees the end of Feb and also 20's to 30's. At least it's sunny....today. So tired of grey....if we wanted grey we'd have stayed in Cleveland - sorry OH, but you KNOW it's grey in the winter.
