Nonno,
We are leaving Maine on the 15th (weather permitting and I get the roof shoveled off again!) heading to TGO for the 22nd or before. Have you choosen your final route yet?
The old wood pile is taken a beating so far this winter. Think we should bring some wood and a stove and show those southern folks how to really get warmed up?

Some body did leave the refrigerator door open because it sure got cold where we were camped over the weekend.

Got down to 28 degrees just east of Dade City FL, still had ice on top of the camper at 11:00 am when we packed up to leave.





Didn't realize there was ice on top of the slide out until I pulled it in. Heard a crunch, looked outside and saw this.

Back in Tampa this morning it was 35 degrees and our two traveling campanions weren't too happy when the fire died down and it started getting a little chilly

The weather inside the Casino's is just lovely, so is the food. Come on down to the Biloxi/Gulfport, Mississippi area. Don't worry about the citrus crop anymore .

bdaball, How does it feel to be retard--, excuse me, "retired" now??? .

[rream]

Temp outside is now -9F and MH will not start to head South, at least you made it South. Tow truck on the way !

I'm going to light a tire fire to fight this global cooling. It's even cold in my office (and I'm not one of those always cold people). I think I can find some reports to burn...

[Chuck Linn]

well all i can say is i hope it starts to warm up as this week we are calling for snow and lows in the single digits , haven't seen those since i lives in Alaska have reservations for New Orleans the end of the month and then over to gulf shores for a month or so and let it warm up back here in OK(by the way they are calling for temps in the teens there this week)

Haven't finalized route yet. Will wait until I see weather reports. Would like to leave on the 25th or 26th but nlt 28th. Will be at TGO from 1/31 to 2/7.

In addition to the stove and wood we could bring all those winter clothes we don't use anymore. Then we could put a trailer behind a golf cart and sell them as we drive around.

Ron,

Any damage to the slide topper?

[EngineerMike]

Jim- You don't have to worry about abnormally cold years affecting global warming. Abnormally cold years, and other inconvenient truths are ignored when doing the calculations.

And it doesn't matter if its cold anyway, cuz the only important thing is the calculations.

[Gary - K7GLD]

As cold as it is in Florida, Mickey and Goofy must be enjoying snowball fights, and Disney World must be losing a bundle...
