I went camping once with my son about 10 years ago and once with a girlfriend before I was married about 35 years ago

That was enough to fully realize it ain’t for me.

Layers and insulated overalls usually keeps me tolerable down to about 25 degrees if I'm motivated. Been feeling a little thin skinned the past couple winters, so haven't braved it as much. Plus I don't smoke in the car anymore which has also cut down on my winter smoking

I feel like a good camping experience is leaving the campsite, finding a restaurant with good wings, cold beer and a football game on the tv, then going back to a hotel

I definitely find myself choosing shorter cigars to smoke in the winter. Sub-60 degrees F can be pretty brutal here in AZ.

I'm lucky that we didn't need the separate attached single car garage that came with this house. I converted it into a mancave. Outfitted with 2 comfy leather recliners, two papasan chairs, 3 bar stools, regulation dart board, humidifier, two ceiling exhaust fans, air scrubber and ventilation fan, 55inch plasma, receiver, turntable, CD and DVD players. I can enjoy a cigar in comfort despite high winds, cold temps and pouring rain...had it all the past week or two...

space heater keeps it above 67F in the winter ...and built in AC keeps it around 76F during the heat of summer

I have a friend who has the biggest RV available. Paid like $600k for it.

Major pain in the ass, though. Always breaking down, gas, tolls, etc.

Not for me.

Either one of these will get the heat down closer to where you are sitting. I have used both and enjoyed the heat I received.

Might work as well, but I have never used this one specifically.

delta, my wife and I do the same thing with money. She has hers, I have mine, we share expenses, and we've never had an argument about money. She teases me for the money I spend on cigars, but in the end, no skin off her back.
