Not sure if I was the only one who didn't know Lowes has a small rv supply area in the plumbing section. I stumbled on it accidentally.

Our first winter with daughter living in an RV. Installed a plywood skirt with insulation board and two heat lamps. Yesterday was 13 and today 18 degrees here in Oklahoma and so far so good. This is a huge learning curve for sure. Lol!

Class C. There is a stairwell that we worried we (or the dogs) would accidentally fall into.

The worst part of 7 inches of snow? Climbing the ladder with a broom in hand to sweep all the snow off the roof.

A huge thank you to whomever posted about adding insulation board to the outside of the windows.

Can’t imagine traveling this year in our RV without this space heater. MUCH more efficient than our RVs built-in heating.

Absolute game changer. Definitely keeps the heat from escaping and the cold from coming in.
