TH put to bed for the winter in a safe, dry, Pole Barn (thanks to my father-in-law0 and I too am looking at making a list of need/want to purchase or build for upgrades. I started last night planning our BIG summer trip, usually about 3 weeks. But, i am only 151 days from our first trip. We will travel to Florida at the end of March during our Spring Break and then up to St. Louis to visit our Daughter. Sad, but really looking forward to next season. I always have the same issue with putting my Motorcycle to bed for the winter. It's sad but I really get pumped about the new season!

I can tolerate the RV in the yard because I can go sit in it and plan. What makes me howl (literally) is seeing a camper heading south for the winter.

Storing my TT at Myrtle Beach. Any issue to camp in it while it's winterized if you don't use any of the water system, faucets/toilets?

Oh join the winter blues club! Yes you are correct when it is home is dose make it worse, but you have to look at it on the positive side, (you are not paying for storage, you have quick access to the rv, you can do maintenance any time you like) and more. But tyes the end of camping for so many (me included) is a very sad and disturbing time of year. But Happy Camping will come with the warmth of the spring so just wish a little harder for spring and it will come.

Likewise in Northern California we camp year round too. Forecast is for more drought thus no rain while camping. (Always a silver lining )

re: Boy, did I make a mistake?
Got the TT parked in the side yard all hooked up to the 30Amp I installed last year when I had the pad paved. I see it when I drive out in the morning and return home at night. Sneak into it when the noise gets too loud in the house (13 year old daughter). It's so nice and peaceful for a nice read and nap. I don't think I'd want it anywhere else.

Loneeagle: just turn on the heat and camp in it. We do it every. Feb at Myrtle Beach. Then re-winterize before you leave.
