Ol Farmer-
You're up in northern WI, right? Did you get all the snow we got down in the Fox Valley? We got another almost 6 inches of the wet icy stuff- no fun. About 4 weeks and our new ZT31SB will be here, hope the snow is gone by then!

Hey Jason. Ya were up north of you, and we ended up with 9-10in. wet , heavy nasty stuff. Plus, the temps went down, had 4 degrees last night. They're not forecasting any immediate
warmup either. I know it has put the brakes on the dewinterizing process.

Having spent 5-days at Rend Lake in Southern Illinois, with 50 mph winds on the way down, blustery temps, snow, sleet, rain...it was still a GREAT camping trip. Now we will be back down in the 20's again tonight...guess I better set the electric heater on low to keep things above freezing inside....

We're getting there!!Night time temps are above freezing, the "peepers"are peeping, the Mallards are back, and the Hasta's are up a good 1.5" - 2"
Only had to plow the lots and salt the sidewalks once this week, , but it was mostly gone within two days!!!
Should be able to pull the 5er back up into the driveway andplug it in within the next couple of days, then hope and pray we can get the anti-freeze out within the next few weeks.

Camped again last weekend for the campground lottery....might do a night of camp driveway this weekend. To much going on to drag the camper out...plus weather kind of crappy and storms are to arrive on sunday... Friends just bought a new Zinger with the rear bunk option, and they are one of 12-people at the campground this weekend. Told them about the factory rally, they are giving it some serious thought!!!

I can go start my snowblower and park it in the green grass if it will make you feel better

Just took a one night shakedown cruise in our new TT to dewinterize and get familiar with everything before taking it out for our first "real" outing in May. Had a few issues that left us scratching our head, but got some great assistance from the in-laws who have been part-timing in their 5th wheel for the last several years. Looking forward to finally getting out and enjoying our new RV (purchased in January)!
