For everyone in Florida that wears flip flops year around and doesn't think twice when going to the dump station...pay attention- Don't Wear Flip Flops!

Yeah, easy...but it takes awhile for your feet to heal after scrubbing all the skin off!

I keep antibacterial soap in the dump compartment. with the water pump on, and the hot water still in the water heater from the campout, I use the outside shower also in that compartment to wash up well with hot water and soap.

Just a little tip from Youroo. If you need a Hold down device for your sewer hose fitting(firewood,rock,whatever) fill a large Ziplock bag with water and place over the end of your hose. Be it at the campsite or dump station,they all do not have hold down clamps! PS then throw the zip bag away! Youroo!!

I use about a 2' pc of slinky with wooden ends in it and filled with sand. Works great.

Don't knock it if you haven't tried it or don't understand.

Hell I (Get it) makes no sense to carry around heavy sand in a tube with wooden blocks you have to make to fit the tube,espectally someone who only has a need for it (1) time a Year in Florida! Youroo!!

Made it about 6 yrs ago when we were camping regularly at Thousand Trails in Mocksville, NC and they don't have threaded sewer connections. Got tired of trying to find rocks to pile on it. Besides that, it's not that heavy, maybe 5# and it ain't eating anything.

I covered what you are saying in my Post#186. Just like you ,people running around trying to find (Rocks,firewood,coment blocks,ect.).Most people have a Zip Lock bag with them,they don't go home and make up a (Sand Tube) to hold the sewer hose. This was just a (TIP) for a quick fix,not a (BIG Deal)! Youroo!!

water is expensive and wet, and WC Fields preferred alchhicol. maybe I will fill a ziplock with vodka, so I can use it in the winter and drink it when I am done.

LOL

Sorry if the tip offended you. It was just how I decided to deal with the problem at the time. Didn't need the sarcastic remarks.
