The walls have been closing in on us a little bit, but we've avoided most of the storms by us, but it's been freezing! We tried to brave it without the heater for the first few nights where temps fell into the 30's, but I had enough of it two nights ago and kicked our electric heater on, which was a great decision :) Finally warming up now, just overcast, bad for our battery charging prospects, which means running the generator more, but I think we're due for a storm tomorrow. All is gut though, as we're heading out of the WMA and down to Naples for a week with family (i.e. living the luxurious life)
Can you build campfires on WMA land? You could always did an alcove with a 4x8 plywood ramp over top and build a huge campfire at the for of the alcove in a storm. Given you have a sense of the wind direction and won't get flooded. -in the craziest instances. I know a lady who delivered a baby in a hurricane, nomad style, in a dug out alcove, never forgot that story. Happy to hear you two will be in safe and warm places soon☀️
Hahaha, that sounds intense. Yeah, building campfires is all good, so long as you have a fire ring of some sorts.
