Thursday, July 10, 2014 – A Little More Running Around

Hubby decided the sump pump I got was too small, so I headed back into town to replace it, and to pick up a couple of 50 foot hoses. While we have plenty of length, we mostly have those collapsible hoses, which, unfortunately, need more pressure than a sump pump can provide to expand them, so we had to get more hoses to reach the RV. Found a little coffee shop and had a nice frozen hazelnut flavored drink while doing some more work on my computer, then back up the mountain again, where we once more worked on the water problem. After a few false starts, we managed to get it going, and filled up the water tank with no problem. I managed to do a couple of loads of laundry (long overdue), but then, since more and more people were coming into camp, Paul asked if we would ditch the sump pump, because he was afraid it would give too many people the wrong idea. Apparently the water supply is a spring, so they don’t want to pull too much out at once, and they used to have a problem with dry-campers coming and filling up with water, which is why they changed the spigots to ones without threads. Fine, we had enough for a while anyway. We had considered riding today, but with all the chores to be done, plus it has been raining off and on most of the day, we postponed it until tomorrow.
