I thinks someone on RORT mentioned Gin or Vodka a few weeks ago.

Of course. Head that RV south and don't stop until you are safe from frost.

Sure , what we did before the pink stuff came along, drain the water
out, then blow the lines out with air. You might want to check your rig
and insure the pluming was installed properly so as to allow total
drainage of the fresh water lines. The waste lines have P traps that we
would connect a small hose to a basting syringe and evacuate all the
water. Of course this will allow the smell of the waste water tanks to
come inside unless you put stoppers in the sinks. Yoi must remember to
drain the shower hose as well. Most of the water supply valves are
designed where all you have to do is open them and they will back drain,
including the commode. The water heater has a drain as well, those lines
can be installed where they might not properly drain. You know a lot of
the pluming has been added after the pink stuff came along, but I don't
think, because it did. We had some pretty primitive facilities when I
was a kid living in a travel trailer. I can remember some sixty 2 years
ago, my brother and I laying in our double bunks of dad's trailer,
listening to Tom Mix and the Lone Ranger on a radio that was quite
large.We took off for New Orleans with dad's tow vehicle a 1929 Nash
Ambulance, now that sucker would get it. The trailer was as I remember a
Glider. Our only indoor facilities was a funnel attached to a hose that
drained in a can below the trailer, guess who had to empty the can in
the morning, my brother was the oldest. The cook stove was oil as well
as the heater. When we traveled the heater oil tank had a shut off valve
but the cook stove had a globe jug that had to be removed and turned
upside down and placed in a holding rack. we not only did not have the
pink stuff then but little indoor plumbing at all.

Propylene glycol is not toxic, indeed it is a common food additive, and it can be
dumped on the ground or anywhere else you desire.

You have a magnetic personality... That must be why all your mental floppies are blank.

I see where Nate <nnord@maxitd.com> contributed:

What would be a _unnatural_ "option"?

You assume incorrectly.   The pink stuff is not "toxic", though I'm
sure you'd get a bellyache if you gulped a quart right outa the jug!

OTOH, I would not dump it in the spring - or the well either.

Propylene glycol is not toxic. You are thinking of ethylene glycol which
is used in automotive antifreeze.

I use a special blend of aromatic herbal essences (boiled then strained)
that is good to -15F. Not quite as good as antifreeze but non toxic and
organic.

Appreciate all the responses and the correction on the relative
toxicity of propylene glycol.  Decided to try a mixture of grain
alcohol and water.  It's also a pretty good santizer and I can just
dump it in the spring.  Thanks again.
