That is one good thing about living down south. We camp more in the the other three season then we do in Summer. We love camping in winter, its the only time we build a fire. LOL

Yep, and I'm doing as much as I can, while I still can, as often as I can.

Winterized mine just yesterday and put the cover on today.
But I'm mostly replying to hijack the thread on behalf of Red Sox Nation. Go SOX!

Trailer is winterized and in storage, but the 4-man Clam is ready for ice fishing, and tent is ready for winter camping. Sure, it's not for everyone, but mosquitoes and ticks are not a problem, and you pretty well have the campground to yourself!! Changing season, new adventures!

My pot is GUMBEAUX!
Seafood, as in
shrimp
crawfish tails
scallops
oysters
clams
dungenuss crab legs
lump crab meat also
Andouille sausage!
did I leave anything out wmtire? How 'bout some beans???? /snort
(was gonna make venison chili and he ragged me about putting beans in it)
oops, OT I went didn't I?
well, not really since it's still about camping in late October!

(chuckle) Sounds like you're living next door to me!
Enjoy it while it lasts. We'll get some nights in the 30s soon.
When we first bought our house I'd build our first fire in the fireplace as soon as the night temps hit 55. 
Not any more!
DH is from Florida. He doesn't like the 30 degree temps.

I've driven through several small towns in the South where signs read, "If you lived here, you'd be home by now." There are many people down here who camp year-round and have a minimalist approach to winterization (such as just running a thermostat-controlled space heater set on 50 or something). Just sayin'...
