as someone who has never winterized and been camping only a handful of times this seems a bit daunting, esp while dealing with a 2yo and 7yo!

Get a sufficient air compressor, blow out plug and antifreeze. It doesn’t take long to do. Your toilet valve is most susceptible to damage.
Having fun is a lot of work.
Use your rig, and be prepared to spend 1/2 hour afterwards winterizing.
It ain’t no big deal.

it doesnt get below 30F here for more than 10 hours at a time, maybe 8x a year. i was just trying to avoid buying more stuff and dealing with more things to do for a short trip!
