We are new to this RV'ing adventure (old and retired) It has made us realize how out of shape and how much work is required. I posted the original information hoping to save somebody else from getting that look of puzzlement as the grey tank 2 continued to fill up but not emptying when we pulled the one you would think would work. Ha. Thank God for the internet. We found this site and the comments that other people had posted but the thread was closed… so I started this new one. If anybody knows of any other tricky stuff, please post it. We are thinking we might just sell this whole rig and buy a second stick built house and eliminate some of what seems to lead to stress…. Beautiful day here in Palm Desert CA and I opened the shade to look down on somebody's red sewer hose. REALLY? Does it have to be red? What about camo instead? Ugghhh!
you have to be able to roll with the punches.....the journey is part of the experience. Once you get a system down it doesn't seem like as much work and gets much easier. Try setting up with 3 young kids running around hollering wanting all of their toys and bikes out of the camper the second you unhook. My wife tells me that years from now I'll look back and miss these times but I think she's full of it.
The problem with a second house is you can't pack it up and move it somewhere else whenever you want to. I would say give it a good long trial and you'll find it all gets much easier. On the other hand....not everyone is cut out for it so you may just find it's not your thing which is fine too. We love it and it's a great family experience....once I get the bikes out of the camper. :D
