I used to wish that. Mine came true. Hope yours does too. Just washed mine the other day and sanitized the FW tank today as we're going away on a trip up North. Tampa :-)

You don't have to live down here. Just come down and spend the winter with us.

It's so bad down here that we couldn't even wear winter clothes to a party last night. Had to wear shorts or be too hot.

The easiest way to get snow off the roof of a motorhome is to start it, put it in gear, and head south. Stopping or continuing on optional once the snow has melted?

Here is a picture of our court yard yesterday morning. Only about 7 inches here in Cape Girardeau, Missouri.......I love snow
Our Motorhome was not under it's cover so I'll have to wait until the snow melts before 'really' putting it to bed this Winter...

You can live in the South (north of Dallas) and still get snow. Got 2" on Monday but melted by Wed. Keep that stuff UP THERE! Haven't shoveled snow in 24 years...

Plano Tx - between Dallas and Fieata48 - Christmas Day. I quit documenting the build up but it kept coming for several hours. Our Christmas dinner was postponed til the 26th. Too much ice on the roads for our guests to safely travel. That's usually the problem in North Texas. Before the snow falls - sleet and ice make a mess of everything.

Okay, we had a nice little (about 5 inches) snow last night....again; so it looks like it will be awhile before I get the Motorhome cover on for the Winter This is what the second day of snow looks like!

Brrrrrr...the pictures look cold...I enjoy our Southern Nevada winters, although it is cold, I've never had to shovel snow.
