As Far as I care you camp the way you want to and I'll camp the way I want to and do as I please. Your 1000 reasons are pure BS. and no one will change my mind and I will continue to leave mine open. I could really care less what you think or say it means nothing to me. And to the person I said I was going to leave a surprize to "who doesn't" like warm muffins in the morning" I don't know what you thought I meant? Just camp the way you want to and I will camp the way I want to.....Have a wonderful day

Now I know you do not know what you are talking about. That is the dumbest statement yet. Do you even know how your unit is plumbed? I do not have fresh water lines connected to my gray holding tanks? Explain that one to me? Please Sir. If your fresh water lines run through your gray tanks you have very big default in your system..... enjoy yourself...

X2 what OC said!

In the past I have been using "Gray Tank freshner" treatment -- willing to bet your formula (Super Clean/Pine Sol) is a LOT more cost effective!

That's a good reason to have water always going through your line, you just proved my point.

AGREE, the house does but the septic tank itself does not. If air gets into the septic tank itself, it plays havoc with the chemical reaction going on.

Glenn, if you want to use your trailer to vent the entire campground sewer system, I'm sure no one cares. Continue on sir! I'll keep a closed system.

Sweet smell of the country...

What do you smell in the countryside

Be courteous to those around you, as for what you may not smell, others do.
