Once again, thank you all for your insights!
I got to spend 2 nights in the trailer with my wife, her best friend, and on one of the nights two of my friends (plus 3 dogs). A few observations:
1. Don't cook so much onion and garlic haha
2. Instruct your friends on what to do/not to do BEFORE they start drinking
3. Give yourself 20 minutes with the hot water on before you try to take a shower
4. Blocks/ramps for the wheels are a MUST
A few questions as well:
1. We ended up being near toilets (kudos to Hollister Hills SVRA to keeping them clean) so we didn't use the trailer toilet. Am I correct in my assessment that we would then only need to dump the grey water tank? And would I be correct in assuming that I can do so on my property as it would just be mostly soapy water? (I am on 3 acres in the country)
2. I got low battery warnings out of my smoke/gas detectors when some of the exterior lights were on and the generator was not (see #2 in observations). I also showed empty batteries when I checked the monitor. When I turned off the lights this stopped and the monitor showed "good" batteries. Would this be indicative of old/bad batteries?
