so what is wrong with you i'm cold i don't like it when it's cold outside
it's not that cold it's cold to me
so it was only 33 degrees last night see that's cool i don't mind when it's chilly outside
do y'all like it chilly outside do you like it cold outside because this girl doesn't
like cold i don't mind chili where you can sit around the fire in the evening and the fire 72
no that's too hot to have a fire but where the fire keeps you warm not where you have to like
stand up on the fire to stay warm it was in the 30s last night it was cold upper 30s but still
that's cold for me so when it gets really when it's chilly you sit around the fire
with your friends and have a good time and when it's real cold what do you have to do
you have to use things like this who knows what does anybody know what this is for these are yeah
i know what they're for what they're for is to let me know that it is too cold for me but this year
we're not going to use those we're not winterizing at all this year so if anybody needs this let me
know you can come get it i don't need it we're not gonna do it why because we're headed south
not because winterizing isn't something very important if you're gonna stay where it's
cold we can talk about winterizing for a minute there's a lot of different
ideas people have we've been doing this for a very long time which you guys have known
all we ever do when we were weekend warriors and we were out thursday friday and saturday and we
will come back to the house i would put this in my intake for the water and i would turn the air
compressor down real low and plug it into this end plug it into this end with a little nozzle
at least it would go inside we would use the telephones and i was okay you got pressure
and she would open up the one of the i would start with the top the top ones i don't know
that's right wrong or otherwise but i would stop start with the ones up top and work my way
down and don't forget if you have washer and dryer hookup you need to drain that one too so she would
we would go through that take about 10 minutes and all the water was completely gone of course that
water went down into your tanks and all that so there's a little bit laying in your tank so then
yes we'd pour a little bit of this down all the p-traps in the toilet don't forget the toilet
and enough to get down into the tank so that whatever water is down there would kind of
be diluted with the antifreeze because we'd probably be going out the next weekend but
if you're somebody who isn't a weekend warrior or is but once it gets like you know mid-november
you're not going back out until next year then you don't need to do just that quick little run
through you might spend a little more time you might blow it all out you might drain your tanks
make sure you drain your fresh water a lot of people forget and pour lots of antifreeze down
there to make sure that everything is covered now some people take your antifreeze and put put their
pump in there run it all the way through until you get pink coming out of all the spigots i think
we've only done that once and and some campers have a hookup for that like automatic and some
of them don't you have to like work at it so we didn't see any difference in one way or the other
but antifreeze isn't the cheapest thing in the world if you're going out every single weekend
then you're buying you're buying antifreeze and antifreeze and freezing antifreeze so i think
we normally bought two or three of those a year went camping came home blew it out pour some mana
freeze down in the in the p traps called of the day went back out we didn't have to worry about
flushing the lines out to get all the pink out all that kind of stuff but if you're up in the
colder colder colder climates and you got to do something you're not going to stuff yeah you're
not going out there every week like we did then maybe you can go ahead and run some antifreeze
through it but where we were in virginia it got cold it got freezing it stayed freezing
some parts of the day and i will say that also depends on your rig because some rigs have like
heated underbellies to keep your pipes warm some rigs have heated tanks like we do um when it would
get really cold and we would be camping we camped one year and it was frigid like it never got never
got above freezing for seven days yeah so it was cold our pipes internally didn't freeze the only
thing that started freezing up was the water hose from the um hookup of the park we fixed
that now because we have a heated hose but we bought a heated hose so funny thing is ever
since we bought it we've never used it but um because we've been going to where it's warmer
but if you're gonna camp where it's cold and you have the right facilities within your rig to keep
everything internal from freezing go ahead and invest it's a little expensive i think it was
just over a hundred dollars for this crazy hose we'll put a link down at the bottom
what we have if you want to get one of those heated hoses yeah and it's heated so then that
takes the one little piece of the equation that you have no control over because your you know
your tanks and whatever are heated and keeps that flowing now there is we've never had it
but there is the instance where the connection at the park like their water [ __ ] could freeze
but most parks that we've been to that it gets that cold they have like the insulation the heated
insulin whatever around the pipes when they put a bucket over top of it and put a light in there
to keep you warm so we've never had any issues with that but that's your your winterizing 101
you could do it either way you want to do it you can pump the water through pump your antifreeze
through and get it all the way through your pipes and all the way out these pickets or you just buy
one of these little cheap things here and blow them out if you're just going out every other
weekend and just put a lot of antifreeze in it some people even do both some people
blow it out and then they still suck it through their pipes so they get it all the way through
but that's you know what i mean i guess it's what works for you and it's going to depend on where
you are and what what you're using this is going to be our first year we're not winning right now
so what would you rather do settle this argument i am getting him to where he likes the warm weather
more but um a little bit in the past i'm the one that says let's head south where it's warmer
he's the one that says i like the cold so would you rather you rather head south with me
where it's warm and we don't need to use this or would you rather stay up here where it's chilly
in camp chilly not cold chilly where it was in the 30s i'm just saying and it's only getting colder
it's not gonna stay camping is better in the fall than it is in the sun okay so you can help settle
the argument below it's not really an argument because he'll go wherever i ask him to take me but
tell me he doesn't he doesn't like the 30 degree anymore either because then you have to stay
inside you can't go outside and do fun stuff if we head south there's usually water involved and sand
so we are headed south we're headed down to florida this year we're going to the key so if you
guys are in the keys around november time frame look for us because we're going to be in the keys
yeah we're going to be there thanksgiving and and then a little after and our next big stop
where we hope to see a lot of you guys is going to be the tampa rv show in january so if you're
going to the tampa show let us know ahead of time we want to meet as many people as we can either
comment here and let us know and or comment on instagram uh facebook let us know let us know how
to get in touch with you we would love to meet up with as many of you as possible and we will update
everyone when we're at the tampa show probably the easiest way will be either like a what do you call
the youtube that's like youtube live look like a little quick i don't know what it's called help
us out i don't know what she's talking about you know we did one in hershey we were like hey we're
youtube live okay that so maybe we'll do one of those and say hey we're gonna be here we'll be in
a fusion booth you know we're keystone ambassador so we will be in the fusion so we'll be on other
places too so um yeah hit us up that's totally off topic but anyway no it's not because we're going
south we're called south and then after that we're headed west so we will not be antifreezing this
year no more antifreeze no antifreeze this year anyway maybe next year might take you to maine in
the winter in the winter now maine yes winter no anyway that's it guys you're joining them
and until the next time you find us running from the cold safe travels y'all
you
