Re: [VAC] Re: grey water use

Truth is, we have yet to really USE the plumbing system in our trailer.
When we got it, it had already been winterized, so our first trip out we
left it alone and used bottled water (in jugs) like we used in the little
14' trailer. I used a basin for washing, and dumped the grey water (with
biodegradable soap) on the ground under the trailer - an acceptable
practice where we were camping. We didn't go through much water in the
first few days, then we start thinking a real shower would be nice...

Maybe we are an exception, but we only used about 4 gallons of water over
the course of as many days. We didn't make a big production of dish washing
- everyone was responsible for their own cup/mug and utensils. Our trip
next week will seem down right decadent - we will have electricity AND water!
