Full hook up?

We are off soon on a trip and the camping site we are using has full hookups. Power and water will be great.

It'll be 4 of us for 4 nights. 2 adults and 2 kids.

A couple questions around the sewer hook up piece. Do you find it more convenient to hook up to sewer when you get there so there are no issues of full tanks later? Both grey and black? Or do you wait and see if you need to.

If you do what do you do with the 90 deg end that goes into the hook up. We have a dump hose that sits in a "case" on the outside of the camper. But, to hook in to the sewer I envision a 90 degree fitting will be advantageous.

This all reminds me that I need to get a fitting for our grey water tank to make it easier to drain cleanly.

You mean where do you store the 90?
I toss it in the little compartment where the valves were on our old TCs.

Your camper has separate gray drain? That doesn’t make sense. What washes out the black residoo from the stinky slinky?

At camp, presuming you plan on using water like it’s free (because that’s the point of fhu). Leave gray open so you can use sinks and shower at will. (Or just dump it as needed). Leave black closed, you don’t want black tank just free draining.
When you need to dump black make sure there’s some gray water to flush out after black.
(Unless you actually have 2 drains, which I’ve never seen)
