So, at that dreadful RV park our RV was so unlevel that when I filled my water tank it read 'full' even though it obviously wasn't. Once we got more level back at our boondock it read only 50% full. -_- However, we're not completely level here either, so today, already, our pump isn't pumping any water from the tank.
I made the executive decision that we would head to Pahrump today. However, I was rocking in my bed this morning. We are having winds like you wouldn't believe. I've just put in both slides because they were shaking so bad we were scared something was going to break.
Nope. No way. I am not driving the RV in winds that are so bad that we think we're going to get knocked over when we're parked. Honestly, I don't really think we'd tip over (though I've witnessed high profile vehicles falling over TWICE when they took a sharp turn too fast) but when the winds are this bad you are getting knocked all over the road. You can get knocked into oncoming traffic by a violent wind. No thank you.
So here we are at the boondock, unable to leave, and out of water. But wait! We're not out of water because I filled my two 5 gallon buckets with 2.5 gallons each of water to do laundry.
WOW. That was seriously lucky. My mom and I usually go through 8 gallons per person per day, but we're going to make it with only 5 gallons today. It lets us flush the toilet, give water to the cats, and clean our coffee cups. We'll be out of water by the end of the day, without a doubt, but at least we can stay put during this windstorm.
