It's all relative...

For those of you who (commendably) agonize over dump station protocols and whether it's okay to water the trees with a quart of dishwater, I offer the following observations from my recent travels:

Three identical spotless full-size trucks towing equally spotless big, bigger, and biggest trailers pull in together. First order of business is to break out the buckets, hoses, scrub brushes, and chemical spray products and wash the equipment.

The rinse hose at the dump station is out of order. Guy shoves his drain line over the adjacent clearly marked drinking water spigot and flushes away.

Hate to say it, but that figures. And like PXL said...and 'ya just can't fix stupid!

Now you see why I can be a bit finicky about my sewer hoses. The messes some people create at the dump ststions means the outside of my hoses certainly aren't sanitary after hitting the ground.

I did question the wisdom of having the drinking water faucet right next to the dump hole. Don't think I'd fill up there even if I hadn't seen what I did!

Photomom

Ugh. Will never fill up at one of those!

Oh come on, germs, they're good for ya. What's a little typhoid amongst friends.

Don't want to deal with ANY of that and I'd have some choice words for 'said big trailer guy.'

Muhahahahaha....Microbes rule the WORLD (no one has bothered to tell anyone else though) - quothe the mad scientist

I vaguely recall seeing "no washing of vehicles" posted at several different campgrounds. That always struck me as peculiar--I rarely wash my truck (or my T@b) at home, so why the heck would I want to do so on vacation?

Is that a "thing" that people do when they go camping? I'm still pretty new to the "RV lifestyle" so I could very well be missing something here...

Now microbes I understand. Humans not so much!
