Well I think were finally going to have a nice weekend here in Central Illinois to go on the first camping trip of the year. I have the Cruiser cleaned up, checked over and de-winterized.

Same nice weather here in Missouri but I am not sure about the de-winterizing just yet! It is possible to have some very cold weather yet.

We are dewinterizing and heading out this weekend. Our dealership is no longer winterizing and we have seen some campers out in our area.

Snow is gone here in Grey/Bruce County in Ontario Canada. It was 70 degrees this afternoon, lots of Robins hopefully spring is here. Now if our new Crossroads Provincial/Patriot CF345RF could just get here I could start piling all the stuff into it that I took out of our old one when we took it to thedealers.

If the weather holds we could beusing them a month or two earlier than norm.....

Getting anxious for delivery now that we have this weather !

Have fun camping ............we are jealous !

Just installed the batteries - put the slides out. No issues from the winter - we had a mild one and not the normal amount of snow. Just have to de-winterize it. First trip is Hershey, PA in April.

14 hours to hitch-up!!Then south to Albuquerque to de-winterize, on into Arizona for a couple weeks then make the turn and take our time getting to the Texas Rally. Texas Gulf coast is next followed by Louisiana and....? Snow won't melt around the yard until late May/early June so don't plan on coming home 'til then. See y'all at the Rally!

I agree with Gossamar...I think I'll head to the dealers and have them dewinterize it next week and bring it home and shake it down in the driveway and if this weather keeps up plan the first weekend shakedown trip, perhaps to WI Dells for a long weekend or something. Wife is changing her surgery schedule from April 24th to June 1st. She will be off for 2 months so we'll head back towards NY (used to be home) for a family wedding and spend some time with the family and grandkids there...then stop in Indiana at the Rally on the way home...hope to meet some of you there Enjoy this early spring everyone!

Jim

I hope all had an enjoyable weekend. We did on our maiden voyage to our local state park. All systems functioned flawlessly!! Enjoying these summer-like temps, here in north central Illinois. Looking forward to the next outing in about 4 weeks.
