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!

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.

Hey it's sunny and -1 degree here. Up from -7 on the way to work this morning. Tomorrow's high of 20 will feel like a virtual heatwave. The bikers, joggers and kiddos walking to school will certainly be out.

I feel for you guys - I really do. We camp year round here in South Louisiana and I've only ran my heater twice. Actually Winter and early Spring are some of the best times to camp in my opinion.

You could always build a fort in the front room and put a fire video on the TV. Bout the best we can do up here in Idaho every winter.

Here in Phoenix it feels real cold. We will get down to the low 40s and up to around 70 for the next few days. It is almost cold enough to break out the parkas. LOL

This is the perfect time of year for us. We pay for it in the summer.
