Hurry up spring!!!

Well, it is 2 days after Christmas, and now we just have to get through the new year. After that, we start looking towards spring. I had off work yesterday, and the DW and I both said, "we can't wait to go camping again." We keep looking at our TT just sitting in its spot next to the house all winterized, and lonely. I can't wait to get back in there and put life in her. So many Christmas presents the DW said this will be great for camping. Last year was our rookie year of camping, and we LOVE IT!!! So in conclusion, Christmas, and New Years are fun, but hurry spring! Hurry fast! I just can't wait much longer!

Too bad you can't go year round. We are winding down for a few days at James Island County Park, near Charleston, SC and Santa is camped right next door!

We are at camping at Lake Skinner in southern Calif. It's in the 70s during the day & the high 30s @ night. Life is GOOD.

I'd post a photo right now but it is all white and nothing would show.

High 20's right now and high teens tonight. Life is waiting for Spring.

Yes, we have the bug to hit the road so have been on line booking campsites for next season. Hopefully we will have a few warm spells to day camp at the beach this winter. Last year we were snowed in until the second week of April and the RV did not leave its pad. If the bug gets real bad, I take the dogs out to the RV for an afternoon of backyard camping in the man cave. They cuttle up in their beds and sleep like babies all day!
Another quick fit for the RV bug is to visit a local RV Show, but that can makes the symptoms worse so beware.

We do that every February, but we always leave the check book at home .

We have not really seen any real Winter here yet. The Fall was unusually warm and that trend has continued. The 10 day forecast here has temps in the 50`s and 60`s. That being said, Spring will still be welcome!

I'm in the warmest part of my country. There have been record highs set here in the last few days. I think it hit 11 degrees C today. Nevertheless I can hardly wait to become a snowbird. Unfortunately going thru chemo left with polyneuropathy which drives me crazy in the winter. Diabetics can suffer from a neuropathy in their feet as well. I have another winter to go thru before we can start going south. I'm counting the days till spring. Can't wait to get the trailer out again.

Hi Seann
How is Slab City? We live about 2 hours west of there, but have never been there. We will head for Borrego Springs in January. Maybe we could will take a day trip to the Slabs.
Have a great New Year.
