What the heck, that snow would be no problem for your Frontier. Head out this weekend!

We just booked our first extended weekend trip for the 2nd week of May. It was fun to hit the "reserve" button on the state park campground site. They have a dog beach and great places to bird-watch, so all 4 of us should be happy. It's on Lake Huron and we're hoping the ice will be off the lake by then!

That looks like a fine site right there!

No snow in the extended forecast all the way through middle of April now. The Ouija board confirms this.. I think we have finally turned the corner. The melt however is another story.

Pacific NW ..... Sunny, almost 70 degrees and the spring blossoms are profuse!  Haven't seen rain in days.... and snow?  What's that?  We've been using our trailer every chance we get.

So what the heck are y'all doing way over there in the cold??

In here during the month of February only we had 121 inches of snowfall. My travel trailer is in storage until May 2nd, hopefully I will be able to camp during the Victoria day weekend in May (May 16th to May 18th)  Hopefully that snow will be melted by then!

The season starts soon along the Mogollon Rim in Central Arizona. The nearby campground (Houston Mesa) is open and the rest below the "Rim" will open next week and the campgrounds and areas for dispersed camping will open in a couple of weeks.
