After a good night's sleep I woke to a light dusting of snow, went out for breakfast and drove by Camp-Inn. I can't pick it up till they open but stopped and took a picture. Two more hours and I get to see my trailer.

We have a bit more snow, but not to worry. The roads look to be in good shape.

I'm just a few miles away. I pulled the trailer up and it was a breeze. Sure is nice having a warm place to sleep and I have my own wifi and laptop.

I awoke to a light snowfall after spending a night in 10 degree weather. Might have even gotten colder overnight. The furnace ran all night and I'm sitting here on the sofa all warm and toasty. I'll do pictures later as my last two days have been very busy. The delivery process took ten hours. But half that time was taken up by taking about firearms. The owner showed me several of his 1911's. Wish I could have hung around as they have a campground there AND a shooting range. He told me I should stop at Rice Lake and visit Henry. My schedule doesn't allow that but if the weather holds I might stick around and visit them on Monday.

This was my view out the front window in morning darkness. The cabin has white and red lights. People can't see in with the red lights. I'm now sitting on the sofa typing this. I grabbed a cup of coffee from the gas station and am eating the second half of a Subway sand from last night. Life is good even though I've only gotten four to six hours of sleep each night since last Tuesday.

A light dusting of snow overnight. The Outback tows the trailer like it is not even there.

I ran the furnace all night and even though it is about 68 degrees inside the outside was still covered in snow. It is well insulated.

my second career covered about 14 years in the RV industry .... even though one of my duties was teaching buyers how to use their campers, it was a learning experience for me .... your observation above is most impressive, it certainly speaks well for your camper .... are you using a load leveling/anti-sway hitch .... if so, what brand .. :?: .. what brand of tires did they install .. :?: .. are the tires balanced .. :?: .. one 20 lb propane tank .. :?:

That looks really cool behind the Subaru. I bet with the 6cyl it has no trouble pulling it.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

I have a once a month (in the summer months) new/current owner seminar at the dealership I work for. I keep it to two hours on a Saturday morning and it's become so popular I had to move it to an open bay in the shop for more room!
