Greetings everyone. Been fulltime living in our fiver for 12 years up here in the cold north. Worked our way up from a small fifth wheel to a large one over the years. I still work and also have a 14 year old at home, so for the most part we park at my business during the winter months and then have a seasonal site for the summer.
We also travel to Northern Ontario for extended weekend getaways where we do alot of dry camping. Our fiver is our home and we have no desire to ever live in a stick house again, been doing this so long now, it's normal now.
Seems like a good forum here and I look forward to participating where I can.

Thanks to all for the welcome. Out of necessity I learned alot about cold weather rving, any questions just fire away. Yes a bit of a Macqiver, kind of my line of work with heavy equipment. Also do some rv work in the shop, and rv haulers, singling out highway trucks and shortening up frames etc.
