Cabin Fever! / Itch to Hitch!

Dang...

I'm going absolutely nuts here. Stuck here in Idaho and the road are nasty. Been snowing in the high country and suppose to get down right cold for a few nights. I'm not so worried about the cold nights but...

I keep looking at this wonderful TT out my window that is dying to be hitched up and go for a tug. But alias I'm still needing plates for the TT. Not to mention the weather is bad...



Oh I'm just counting the days to April. April 1st is the day I get to fire up the irrigation for the property so it a kick off date for grabbing the TT and going out to play with it.

In the meantime I go out and sit in the cold living room dreaming... Some days I find a project to do in there and I'll fire up the furnace and enjoy the TT with the side out and everything...

So help me out gang I'm going nutz...

ummmmmm, I've only lived/endured the snow for a winter while stationed in Munich when I was 18. Soooooooooooooooo, we only "do snow" when we plan to go up to play in it..... I guess I could encourage you to, grab the sled and find a hill

Now to add more to it... It getting even colder tonight...

Suppose to get down to around 0*F in not colder... I went to New meadows to pick up some propane for a BigBuddy heater and it was only 3*F above then at 2pm and they will be in the minus numbers for sure...

Oh how am I counting the days till spring...

Hi Seann,
Where in SoCal are you? I'm sitting in Simi Valley right now, heading back to NoCal on Tuesday/Wednesday. Been here for the holidays visiting my kids.

Next thing on the list is to drive a 180 miles to Boise, ID to now start shopping for the stuff so we can go camping... It just a empty box. Now we need all the stuff to make it home... Bedding, kitchen wares, bathroom supplies, few hardware things, but all the little things to make it homey...

I've done some day camping out there... Fire up furnace and do so nit picking and looking. Spen the better part of the day just inside the rig. Trust me I'm itchn' to just pull it down the road to the local camp ground and spend a night in it... But since I'm not 4 season (pretty sure) I'll wait till the weather warms a bit more...

Cheer up Moparman. Spring comes to New Meadows the 21st of April. In the rest of the state it comes March 21st. Unless you go to Riggins.
