Recently my wife forwarded this pic to me, sent to her by a friend who understands our winter doldrums. Kinda says it all.

Tennessee... you aren't that far from warm temps, why don't you camp through the winter? I drive 900 miles to get to Florida every winter for 2 weeks. You can make it to Atlanta in 4 hours...
Shoot, looking at average temps in your area, you can probably camp year round at home. Average high of 50, average low of 33 in January, starts warming up in February... why aren't you camping RIGHT NOW? ๐
These temps do not apply where we live. Some of the lower elevations are milder in the winter but not on the Cumberland mountains. We are somewhat warmer than years past but anymore we have experienced colder temperatures, some nights have been in the -0 area. Can't go south either due to critter obligations, would be nice though.

My poor camper goes through "travel withdraw" every year in central Indiana. The poor thing just sits there, shivering and shaking in the wind in a deep depression. When temps get to about 10 degrees (F) we finally move inside the house, as it just cost too much to heat to enjoy sleeping in there at night. Well, when temps dropped again this year, the poor thing started crying, all alone, and dejected. This was Dec 13 this year:
So, we had to help the poor thing out and did our annual migration South! We stayed at Lake Greenwood State Park in South Carolina for the week between Christmas and New Year. I've never see my camper so happy:
But then, we had to return to Indiana, and the last few days we got snow again and, like you, the temps dropped to -1 (last night), and been single digits (less than 5) pretty much all this week. Burr!
My baby is sitting out there screaming again! Hurry up! Come-on March! I know we're heading to Andrew Jackson State Park in South Carolina the week of March 10! Only a short while to go!
Yea, my baby crys loud when it has to just sit!
I am in Indiana as well Dutchman. My Vibe is not to happy at the moment. I keep looking out and thinking come on April!!!

Last year we went out to Phoenix for a muzzleloading rifle shoot. This year we are spending the first three weeks of January in Florida.
We dry camp till we get south far enough to add water.
When we get back to Indiana, we will re-winterize and head for the State Park to do some dry camping and snowshoeing.
We have spent some nice nights in Georgia which is not all that much of a trip from TN.
It is in the 50s in FL today which is fine but in two day it will be back to the 70s which is even better.
Try a mid-winter weekend a bit farther south. If you do not like it you can always wait for spring.
Just right for Grandpa, Grandma and the dog.
