found a new lost 10' 3" waste hose today. Did you lose one

Unfortunately it was in our 4" sewer pipe, blocking a 'T' which caused a back up, flooding a common area( no campers affected) with raw sewage at an absorption field.
Please everyone, do not put your waste hose into the drain any more than necessary, and always use a donut or disposal connector.
Between me, staff, our backhoe, facility locator, rental of roto rooter, honey wagon cleanup, sterilization, cost was considerable, inconvienence even more so.
Thanks to the many of you who know to use a wastewater seal, Please teach the others who do not.

  • Guess they really got po'ed when their review did not show up on RVPARKREVIEWS.
  • I'm curious as to how this could happen assuming you are talking about a typical stinky slinky. Do your sewer connections have threads?

    That takes a special breed to perform that one.....

    It's bad enough doing it, but then leaving and not saying anything....
    That's a real class act.
  • May have been mine as well. Wife's apparently smells like roses, so if that fragrance is weeping from it, please send it my way.
  • Geez, it could be mine.
    Could you please wash it off well and package it and ship it to me FEDEX next day air?
    I expect you to do this free in the name of customer relations.
    Also please enclose a certificate for one nights free camping for MY inconvenience as well as an apology for not building in safeguards to stop me from doing an idiotic thing.

    Thank you
