Winter camping question

We plan on camping a few more times this month, this weekend, and down to Dumont over Christmas break. We got back last night, and I dumped tanks, opened drain valves and pulled water heater anode to drain. Still paranoid about freezing, so I left the furnace on last night as well. I am planning on figuring out how to access the Galley grey water tank and plumbing and fixing that leak this week before we go back out.

Wondering if I am Ok to let it set like that for a week, or if I need to run antifreeze while I have it sitting out. It's currently running between 28-32 at night and low 60's during the day.

I plan on moving it up to my Grandparents RV garage, as he no longer has one, and we are planning on storing my trailer and my parents trailer there until Dumont. After Dumont I'll be winterizing it and parking it behind my house.

Any thoughts and knowledge would be appreciated.

With those temps you should be ok, but I'm a bit anal and would blow out the lines just to be safe. Also, if you have a washer you need antifreeze in that if it gets colder.

If your running your furnace, you should be fine.
