Well, it got down to 30 the night I tried it, so that bodes well. Too hot? Well, too hot is-- too hot!

Pee bucket-- yes, I stole it from the Mudcat Dorm, so now I'll have to get another. What I did was make room for in-van if absolutely necessary, but it turned out not to be-- so I set it out on the dark, more-private side of the van (facing the women's cabins) with a rug for barefooting to it. If I had it in the van, tho (if it were raining too hard), there is the option of lining the bucket with a plastic liner, then putting kitty litter in the bucket and adding more as needed. I kid you not. It needs a lid or it smells like kitty litter deo crystals! You can just about keep up, with this method, which I discovered one night at a KOA when we were parked just too far from the potty, in the pop-up. In the AM you simply carry the bag full of litter and TP to the dumpster. Now when we use the pop-up I NEVER gt all waked up by trekking to the loo. (And another point of conversion for the hubby!)

Since you asked. :~)
