[A/S] camping in late March in New England




I don't know if I'm excited or scared -- maybe both -- but I'm about to 
take the plunge!  I've decided to buy the 28 CCD (much better bathroom 
and bed set up!) instead of the 25.

When I get nervous because 28 sounds so big, I keep reminding myself the 
25 is really 25'11" and the 28 is really 27'11" -- a difference of only 
two feet.

My maiden voyage is going to be the weekend of March 24 - 27th at my dog 
club's agility trial at the Big Eastern States Expo in Springfield, 
Mass.  Not sure if water will be available that weekend, but electric 
will be and sewer should be.

The trailer that I'm putting a deposit on is winterized.  I will make 
arrangements to have it de-winterized on March 24, since I'll be going 
up that afternoon to help with set up at the show site.

My question is -- and maybe there's no way to know -- should I have it 
winterized once it's back in storage on Monday March 28th?  The trailer 
will be stored in north central Conn.  I'm thinking I probably should, 
as it's possible to get below freezing late in March and early April. 
Next use would be the weekend of April 15 and 16, after which I assume I 
could safely leave it without RV antifreeze?

Any advice, tips or thoughts for my maiden voyage would be most welcome!
