I dumped our gray and black water holding tanks, as I normally do on Sundays. When I opened the black water tank, the pull cable came loose from the valve. That means that it doesn't fully close Which means that the liquids drain and the solids stay sitting in the bottom of the tank. To get to the valve, I'll have to remove the 'belly pan' from the trailer. That pan is held in place by at least 32 hex head screws and more than a little calking. I'm holding off on starting it until after our checking account reloads. I'm not sure what I'm going to run into when I start the project and don't want to leave it half done because of lack of funds for parts.
Because we live full-time in our RV, we keep an Emergency Bag packed and ready to go at all times. You never know when weather or other circumstances may require us to evacuate quickly. Today we checked and updated what we keep in the bag. We then put it in the truck so it was ready at all times.
This evening was also our Bible Study.
2012 November 20 Tuesday: We arived at Shady Oaks with what I thought was a nearly empty LP tank. With the baking that we've been doing, and the occassional use of the furnace, I've expected to completly empty the tank. Well, this morning I awoke to find the furnace fan running and no heat. It had gotten down to 45 degrees over night and the tank was finally empty. I manually changed the LP to the full tank. Now I'll need to get that tank refilled.
