holding tanks and freezing

[Gardner Yeaw]

I think I will go with the pink stuff. I will most likley need to
drain and blow out the system after my November 3rd trip, and then
re-activate the coach when I take the December trip. I don't have
electric where I store it and there is no sense in taking the chance
of a freeze-up. Anyway, if the weather even hints that there might
be ice on the roads we will not take the Bird out. I may be nuts,
but I'm not crazy. I can't imagine how I would handle a skidding 13
ton bus without several changes of underware!
