It's That Time of Year Again

The snow is coming down here in Cincy. As much as we used to live in the Great White North I still don't like seeing that white stuff falling out of the sky. More now than ever I guess since it's been 35+ years since we left the GWN. And probably because this darn old body likes warmth more now.

However, that means it's dream and shop season. What do we want for the camper? What changes can I dream up? The wife has been looking at FB RV Modifications, Tips and Hints which may be dangerous! Between DD and Santa we got lots of new camping gear, but there's always that one more thing, right? :D

Tim,
It's time for you to watch "The Long, Long Trailer" (1953, Lucille Ball & Dezi Arnaz).  Either again or for the first time.  Always room for one more thing reminds me of the scene in the movie where Lucille Ball's character admits to having collected a special rock at every place they visited.  ;D   It's super corny, funny and worth the watch.  It's on Amazon Prime if you're a member, or you can buy the DVD at Amazon if you have a DVD player.  I think some of the other streaming services have it too.  The scene about backing up the trailer is my favorite!

I vaguely remember this episode. I'll have to look it up.
We have Prime, no DVD. (aren't DVD's the last technology to go by the wayside?)

And here's the camper today! Eleven inches of snow, so far.

Tim,
A nice snowy day dreaming of camping and watching the movie definitely beats shoveling snow!

Daydreaming and movie watching wasn't in the plans for that day. Have to be grateful that my FIL (RIP) left us a snowblower. It's a tiny thing but it blasts snow a good 10-15 feet. Took us a good part of the day to clear that 11 inches of snow. Then there was another 2 inches three days later. UGH.
I did find that Lucy & Desi episode on two different sites, both subscription based of course. But I found a short trailer where Desi is backing the trailer. CRASH! Too Funny.

You are as bad as my brother who posted it was 78° and sunny in San Diego.
If I could I'd mail you both a box of snow! :))

They're talking snow or slush in Jacksonville Monday/Tuesday. Might get a tad chilly here in Orlando area, Freeze warnings are for north of Ocala though!
