Well, it finally happened
We moved into the house tonight after sleeping in the camper every night since the middle of March this year, either driveway camp or traveling. No drive-way camping tonight!
I burned through a 30 pound propane tank in 2 days, weather got cold. Too costly to keep it heated now. I winterized last Saturday. Slept in it last night by retracting all the slides except the bedroom and shut down the furnace since all the lines are winterized and tanks empty. We keep electric heat in the bed room with 2 space heaters and with an electric blanket. Drug out the old port-a-potty. That thing is old, but it's still very functional!
Slept real good last night, but decided with impending snow coming, I really want to keep the slides in. We're leaving Saturday for Louisiana (Lake Briun State Park) and don't want to take any chances at all for ice and snow to settle on the top of the slides and then find myself in a real pickle packing up on Friday.
So, we are inside the house right now. We've got a really nice fire going in the fireplace, watching television, and I'm experiencing withdraw symptoms already. Ugg... It's going to be a long time for Saturday to roll around now!
