It's FINALLY camping season
After 5" of snow last weekend and 70 degrees this weekend, we finally got the camper out of the pole barn and really for our first weekend out in 2 weeks.

Not sure where you're at, but we had several inches last Mon/Tue along the I-25 corridor in CO. Was in the mid/upper 70s this weekend. Supposed to get more snow on Thursday. April/May are always so frustrating in CO. Just when you think winter is over and the warm weather is coming ... snow.
Have fun camping.

We are just outside Chicago and it's been crazy weather here too. Snow one weekend, 60+ the next weekend snow again followed by 70's the next weekend. The last month has been a roller coaster of temps

We were just talking about Baraboo today. We were talking about circus world. Is it still worth the trip? My husband has never been there. My lat visit was in the early 80's

Nice trailer. Our weather has been about the same.
We made hay in parts of our yard too but other parts not even mowed yet and over a foot high which had some snow on it last week.

Almost camping season here in The Great White North too. We officially became snow free yesterday about noon when the last snow bank disappeared. The motorhome came through the winter beautifully and is almost ready for our first trip - our long weekend May 17-20. Can't wait!

In the West there is great camping in the desert in winter. I like spring and fall best. Summer is the time to head to the backcountry to get away from all the people.

Zero days in camper, but we've had 6 weekends at our cabin so far. Looking more and more like the camper will be going up for sale this year.

That looks wonderful. Wish we had the vacation time to camp somewhere like that. Living in Illinois it take time to get somewhere like that
