unintended winter camping
Three day weekend usually means our 16 year old wants to spend a night in the motorhome. So we pulled it out of storage yesterday. Flushed the antifreeze out. And plunked it in an open spot in a Colorado State park close by.
It was mid 40's yesterday. And ground was dry.
Wife noticed storm clouds on the horizon, which I shrugged off.
Looks like about 4" of fresh snow fell over the night.
Camper's plugged in to the 30A outlet, with gas and electric heaters running. Tank heaters are on. I also plugged in an additional electric heater to the 20A outlet on the pedestal and kept the plumbing warm in the rear.
Half tank of propane will easily last us one more day.
The snow is light fluffy and pretty. But -- my fingers are crossed that it doesn't get too cold before I can re-winterize!
