First camping trip of the 2023 season! It was cold, wet, and very windy spring weather for most of the week. There was only 1 evening we could have a campfire. 😞 The new solar setup & expanded battery bank on the camper worked great. The new Thule awning worked great also, but I didn't have it up much due to the wind.

There was lots of work and cleanup to do after the long winter. Picked up downed tree limbs. Chainsawed & removed some fallen trees in the cornfield fence perimeter before they plant the field for the season. Also worked on cutting & removing invasive honeysuckle as part of our timber rehab plan - a never ending job. I took the pups for long hikes and they loved exploring the trails thru the timber. It felt good after a hard day of work to settle down for the night in the warm camper.

Looking forward to doing more!! :camp_caravan:
