Howdy.
Here is an update on our water heater leak/wet carpet/padding/bathroom flood.
The carpeting on my side of the bedbox is dry BUT IT STINKS!! Any ideas as to how to get rid of that odor?

Water heater needs to be replaced.

We went to San Antonio Friday and were gone for about 3-4 hours. When I went into the coach, I could hear water running. Yes, it was running, onto the bathroom floor!!!! The d*&&^%$n water valve in the Microphor toilet didn't turn off. Consequently the black water tank filled with water through the overflow on the toilet. When that was full, the water overflowed the bowl and then onto the floor. Luckily the bathroom rugs sopped up a lot of that water, which was CLEAN!!! The water also went into the bedroom and soaked the carpeting on Jack's side of the bed. We spent the weekend blotting up the water, pulled up the carpet and ran fans to try and dry things. I think that our Bird is mad at us or something. We have had to replace major items in the last 4 months. Geeeeze. $$$$$.

Oh well, thanks for letting me vent.
