Winter camping with Nellie!

Camping season 2021 is here, I think it's good to start as early as possible 🥶🏕

The day we were supposed to leave it was -22, just a bit too chilly! I was worried Nellie might just shatter into frozen little pieces if I tried to move her when it was so cold!

Finally it warmed up to a nice balmy temp of 2 degrees so we hit the launch button🚀🔥

Moving south! 17degrees now, progress!

Lots of straight roads in Iowa!

Needed to make a little brake adjustment🛠

Perfect camping weather, 30 degrees 🌞

We took a chance and didn't make any reservations, we lucked out and snagged this great spot!

I can't believe that no one else is here🏕

Coke machine isn't working, bummer😢

We actually stayed here 2 years ago but it was mid March. It was probably only 15 degrees warmer but less snow and lots more mud! We had a great sunset the last time also!

It's great to have a nice quiet place to park for the night! An employee of the park was even nice enough to stop and ask if we needed water, he would turn it on for us, very nice offer but we don't need too many ice cubes yet! 

Nice and warm inside Nellie, 68 degrees and happy to finish off the day with fresh pumpkin bread from our fantastic neighbors! Not sure but maybe they were just happy that we were leaving!😃

Warmer days are coming!🌴🏖
