Sorry for your sad day Steve.

I am leaving Ft Pierce FL heading to Hollywood FL (Miami area) today, I will think about you while enjoying the sun

We're still at the campground but we'll be in the same boat tomorrow.
To the dealer and away for the winter. Very sad.

It's always a sad day when the camping season comes to an end. The hardest to winterize are the ice maker, washer and dish washer. I've used the rest of the water system on winter trips because the rest is pretty easy to return to pink again.

Actually, a worse day is when you have to roof rake the 10" of snow off the RW roof because they predict 14 more inches...

The only scratch on my RW was done by my snow blower... Come on Spring!!

Boy Rob.........that is really raw!

Actually, I am making final preparations on my coach to take it to the Palmetto, FL are at the end of November......whoohoo! I will get it set up at our park then fly home a week later. At the end of the holidays, my wife and I will drive our car down to Palmetto (probably New Years day) to stay for the remainder of the winter.

Yup. Just finished pumping the pink stuff through the lines. I finally bypassed the water filter with a $1.89 double male 1/2" threaded pipe so not to waste the 1/2 gallon or so to fill the water filter housing. At least I have that to be happy about.

Yep, I was staying at Treasure Coast, I agree nice park, nice people there.
It was my first stay there, if in the area again (and it is not Snow Bird Season) I will stay there again.

Good day as my last electric bill full-time in Georgia was $65. Hope to run the fans for a while now!

Living in California we are fortunate to get to go out year round... We never have to winterize.

I am in the cold regions of Utah and I do not winterize either.

I have the redwood all set up in my heated hangar just like it was at an RV park 50A, Sewer, TV. That way when I feel like tinkering in the "Shop" I never have to go home!!!
