Driving to Arkadelphia into the snow

posted in: RV trip 2022-02 | 0

Drove to Arkadelphia AR.  Lunch at the Rt67 Grill in the historic center of town.  Good slaw and burgers.  Refuel at Valero.  Found a deserted Caddo Valley RV, which is a big/ flat gravel lot with very modern utilities pods.  We waited until 3pm when the camp manager bestirred herself from her RV.  The snow started right then, with freezing temperatures predicted.  We started the night slow-dripping water in the bathroom faucet and the gray water valve open, using our heated water hose.  After the snow slowed, Jim rethought precautions.  Stopped the drip, drained our water hose, used propane heat with Truma on full.  Closed gray tank, all tank heaters on.  We successfully passed the night without apparent freezing.
