Poopoo hose (red)
Some people might know that I've been a bit preoccupied by the entire getting-rid-of-the-poopoo part of the RV experience. I just wanted and want to know that's it's being done correctly and there are no mishaps. A bit of RV info, the system is totally cool. There's black water and grey water. When you arrive at your site you "hook up" to the sites sewer/septic system. Easy as pie. The RV has one big (6 inch diameter) accoridan tube that you hook up to a valve and place the other end in the hole that leads to above mentioned system. First you turn the handle to black water (icky poopoo stuff) and when that's emptied, with a simple turn of the handle, all of your grey water (from washing dishes, washing hands, taking showers) exits the same tube, cleaning it of all icky poopoo stuff. Well, yesterday we had a little poopoo problem. Don't really know why, 'cuz there's now way (and you wouldn't want to anyhow) look inside the whole system, but when we went to hook up there was a little, well, spurtage. Not a good thing. Unless you've RV'd, you wouldn't know that the sites are actually very close together, and don't ask me why, but all the sites are laid out so that your picnic table/hang out area is backed up against your neighbor's poopoo hose. So here are our neighbors, already set up and having a chat and a cocktail when we arrive. We back in, hook up and splooge! Unlike the movie RV with Robin Williams, neighbors do not come running over to saying "Golly gee, let me help you figure out your poopoo problem." They actually scatter really fast...and then they avoid you for the rest of the time you're at the camp. Ah well, one man's poopoo problem is another man's poopoo problem too!
