"It will be fun", they said. They didn't say anything about it being 37 with winds at 16. We planned a trip last weekend because the "weather looked nice". We took the plunge and made the hour drive south to Brownwood. The sub-freezing windchill temps haven't slowed us down a bit....already done with our hike and traditional kickball game. My new camper's maiden voyage looks like a success so far. And my Yeti is holding ice like a boss.

No offense, but in this weather your styrofoam chest would keep food.

Looks like a good time. Hopefully you can have a roaring fire tonight at the campsite.

You both are to be commended on camping this time of year. Great experience for your daughter. No crowds and you don't sweat to death setting things up.

Yep, a great fire and the weather doesn't seem as bad.

Coldest hunt I have ever been on, was outside Brownwood around 1980, winds where in - degrees double digits. 36* if you're dressed for it and still good times with the family up If things get really bad, you can always crawl into the Yeti to warm up roflmao

The virgin voyage for the Puma is just about in the books. Nobody froze while we stayed extra warm and toasty with an electric heater (wanted to save our propane in dire need). My daughter was out riding her bike already - at a cool 27 degrees - and while everybody is hiking the lake, I'm headed to the dump station. A few luxuries need to be fixed but overall another good one in the books.

On a side note: I just love to razz the Yeti crowd....both lovers and haters.

Had a great time. Many more to come. I'll give my polar bear badge to my 6-year old. She got up, got dressed and rode her bicycle before stopping for breakfast. Long shadows this morning.....it was chilly. We're back home and doing laundry and thinking just how cold that Vikings game is.
