Could use the wisdom of this group.
When you're at a site without sewer hookups and there is a single dump station, is there an etiquette related to time spent at the station?
I was leaving a site today, no one in front of me at the dump line and I took care of business. Looked behind me, still no one there so I thought I'd head in to the camper and run some stuff into the sinks and toilet as I always do after dumping.
While filling the toilet with a couple gallons of water, someone knocks on my trailer door an tells in, "are you about ready to kick off yet?"
This flustered me so I rushed the procedure to get out of the line and realized an hour later I had neglected to shut off the water pump and the lights in the trailer and shower stall.
Thankfully, no faucets were open so no disaster. But I couldn't have been in there for more than 5-6 minutes MAX and that was AFTER checking that no one was behind me. Since the driveway out was only wide enough for one vehicle and was about 2 miles long, I would have run in to the same problem had I pulled out of the dump station to start that procedure forward of the station.
What do you think? Glad to learn either way!
