Cool mmmmm....decisions, decisions

I'm ready to go camping.
Let's see......the pop-up or the tt?



Oh well, I guess a camping trip is out of the question for now.
Guess we can always drive way camp!

driveway camping sounds great! Now, I can't move from from my lazyboy except for eating, sleeping, or using the restroom so it'll have to wait a few weeks...darn ankle surgery! Snow here tonight and tomorrow

Snowed here this Am still went out and picked out a new "toad".
Freeway was shut down due to an accident back roads where a mess due to little or no plow service.

Gotta love it, just wish people would learn to drive in it......

Hey Gary, glad to see you're back. I know how you feel. We picked up the new 5er on the 18th, checked it out for 5 days and put it in storage. Now we are expecting snow, sleet and/or freezing rain tomorrow through Monday.,

We started getting light freezing rain with occasional sleet Thursday morning. Bridges became slick early. By late afternoon it was heavy sleet. Total accumlation of 1/2" to 1".
Friday morning I woke up to small, but heavy snow. I took those pictures at 10:30 am and it had all but stopped by 12:30 that afternoon. Total of 5" of snow on top of the freezing rain and sleet.
Here in rual eastern Oklahoma we do not have the equipment needed to keep roads clear when this type of weather occurs, so I'm just sitting at home waiting it out.

Hey....how are things going. New 5'er? Post some pics on this thread so I can see.
Pics are easier for me to read than words.

The steps are already down and if my eyes are correct it appears that it's plugged in. Driveway camp would be my choice!!!

Yikes! What the heck is all that white stuff? Oh wait, I remember now. We had some of that in December of 1989. Haven't seen it since. Yesterday, it was 83 degrees here! Don't know where winter has gone, but I don't really miss it!

Full Timing! WOW! Congrats on being able to do that.
I havn't checked all units rated for full timing, but I have checked out the Sanibels. A few years back Prime Time sent their first one out to my dealer, Leisure Time in OKC, and Jeff himself was there. He took me through a personal tour of the unit. I was really impressed with it....and Jeff too. I know you guys will enjoy it. Just don't have too much fun.

Oh......I see now....that's why we're getting all this white stuff. We're getting our share and yours too!
No Fair!
