Getting close.

Been 50 here in Minnesota the last couple days snow is melted and I am getting the itch to get the 233s from behind my dad's barn home.
Hopefully next week got to let the ground dry up a bit first.

We still have 3 feet of snow at home, melting fast. Hopefully next week we can haul the Rockwood home and clean it up for a early March camping trip!

We're just ending our 6 week camping trip today.
We've been camping in NorCal, Socal and Oregon and only had 3 days of rain.
Saw family and friends, with most the time with the DW'S cousin and her husband and their truck camper.
Even got some surfing in.
Great trip and the longest trip we've ever taken in the Roo.

Well the melting has ended here in the Northeast. Been in the teens at night and the snow has comeback in.

It has been so cold the last few years here.

Pulled ours out of storage last night and will work on prepping it for our spring break trip down to the Gulf coast. She's been in storage since mid-November and I was so pleased when I opened it up and found no signs of leaks or critters. It looked exactly like it did when we put it away. Thank goodness!

Pulled the Rockwood home last night! Plans are to do the spring cleaning and get ready for our first trip after Easter. Today we have snow in air and rain so the basement cleanup is off for today me thinks.
