We are suffering from CWS (Camping Withdrawal Syndrome) too. We always hit a couple RV shows with friends in Feb to help.

Already starting to receive materials or this Spring's modifications. Stainless steel sink, to replace factory plastic came in last week. Ordered a supply of Dicor to re-calk roof seams, plus I've got some other projects in mind..... Going to the Springfield (MA) RV Show in February, so who knows what ideas I'll come home with!

YES! But luckily we get to go winter camping...living in the Atlanta area. Not far from South Carolina and South Georgia and South Alabama. Matter a fact we just got back from a FROG Rally in Florida... soooo wonderful!

Being from OH, we usually await late mid May, but we head for FL for spring break. Not sure why they call it "break" since I'll be be there with my wife, 5yr old daughter, 2 teenage daughters, and their friends. Thank goodness for uncles, friends, and alcohol.

Picked our vacations at work today and that really got me with the withdrawal. With the mild winter last year we were able to take our 1st trip in March. Hoping for another repeat. Of course it's 27° today and getting in the teens tonight. Just a reminder that it's another day closer.

Okay....this is a tough day for winter weather here in Michigan. We just came home from a family birthday and had to run the truck in 4X4 all the way home...about 60 miles. Snow, sleet, ice and the roads are a real mess. School closings for tomorrow are flashing across the T.V. screen. This is just the way it can get here during the winter. I have to admit....Florida does sound pretty nice about now. LOL!

I can not wait until camping season. I have to see my camper every morning when I leave for work. The weather will keep us from doing so until late April or early May. I have 4 trips planned so far, but I also have a 10 day mission trip to Haiti in april, and a 15 day cruise to Hawaii in September. Those two might cut into my trips this year.

Same here in Wisconsin. Sleet, rain, snow, etc. Thought I'd have to scrape the ice for an hour, but luckily, it was 33 this morning at 6am so everything was melted. No closed schools, etc. Supposed to be 58 tomorrow. Crazy weird weather. Spring can't come soon enough!
