Motorhoming

Another installment in my continuing effort to document everything that a person might do wrong while motorhoming. Item number 3,842. Let’s say you’re in a really nice RV Park with excellent desert landscaping and nice cement pads, and you don’t want to wait until you’re parked on gravel, you want to rinse off your batteries with a hose while the weather is warm, and you think you can just rinse off the cement below the batteries with the hose afterwards, and not leave a mark. Don’t imagine that you can spray some neutralizer from the auto supply store on it to stop it. Don’t think laundry detergent will help. Don’t think you can go buy some baking soda to scrub it with and make it go away. Nothing will help. It will leave a mark; a really interesting colorful mark. Then you have to go to the office and confess what you’ve done and everyone comes to look at it and shake their heads.

Happily, this has never happened on our site here in Texas. It has happened on a really nice site in Mesa, Arizona, however.
