Last week, we were camping at a campground that was associated with a Camping World. For those who've never camped, a Camping World is a store that is dedicated to JUST camping supplies. Part of the reason we chose that campground was because of it's association with the Camping World. While there, we were able to fix a few minor issues as well as get some handy tools to make living in a camper a bit easier.
Unfortunately, as we were packing up the camper to leave, we discovered that we had a water pipe that was leaking under the sink of the camper. It has in turn, warped a bit of the Pergo floor we installed. Got that problem fixed (for now at least). The next morning, we found we had a small leak in the sewage hose. That's ok, because we have 3 others, so we're good to go right?
Not quite... Last night after the kids were in bed, we discovered that the air conditioner was not working correctly (it wouldn't cycle off at all) so we turned it off till Jon could look at it during daylight. He could not confirm his suspicion of the problem, but the A/C is working for now and doesn't seem to have the same problem.
Then after lunch today, I went to wash the dishes and there was no water. I rushed around the camper making sure there was not a leak into the camper. Once I determined that was not the case, I went outside and discovered that a BRAND NEW water hose had a 3" slit in it. We hooked it up for the first time when we got here yesterday, so I have no idea what happened. The good news is that I believe I found the last potable water hose on the island (it was the last one at the store I got it from anyway).
When we purchased a used camper, we knew there would be issues. I just wish they would have all hit right when we got to the last campground since we were right next to the Camping World rather than when we have to pay $6 each time we go off the island.
