2018 Hoosier Shivaree

[prohandyman]

Well after discussion with several winter camping enthusiast we have decided to hold another gathering in the cold. We once again are planning for January, and as for now on the 27th. That is the weekend before the SuperBowl if that matters and we will be at Brown County state park, where, 10 or so years ago we met there, and woke up to sub-zero temps!!
We stayed warm, huddling around a fire almost the entire weekend. So... Who's in? I'll be checking with the park in the coming weeks to confirm our visit. Get those heaters warmed up!!
Here's a shot from 2007

I'm planning to be there with the Scotty and Scotty is planning to be there with the new tiny tear I'm building for him
Who else is willing to brave the cold

I stopped by the park last week and checked with the staff. There will be sites open, a heated comfort station available, and firewood will be available for sale. Also, if there is snow on the ground that weekend they will plow the sites for us.
A little over a month away.

I will neve forget the look on Vickie's face when after a long winded conversation she went to take another sip of coffee and the chunk of ice it had became hit her in the nose.

Testing the little camper in the cold today and tonight before Scotty sleeps in it. It's up to 27 degrees inside from 15 when I put the heater in it, I have a wireless that I can sit in the house and watch it. It's also never been plugged in for 24 hours straight.

I'm planning on being there fairly early I'd like to be there by noon. It's a pay when you get there they don't take reservations. Hope to see some people there it's not gonna be to bad a weekend for Jan

They are putting in 50 amp service throughout the park. It was originally going to be closed from Nov 17th through the end of the year. When I called today I was told it was indeed closed but there was a possibility it could be open by the end of the week.
