the aftermath...

well, after my last post, we were packed and on the road by that evening. we didn't make it too far the first night, but as everything in the trailer was frozen solid, and we hadn't had a good shower in a week and a half, our first night was spent in a cheap hotel. with heat. and hot running water. it felt like heaven.

two more days south and we stopped in a little town called Cedar Creek, TX. it took another 2 days for everything to completely thaw. that was when we were able to assess the damages:

one crapper hose - frozen solid and broke apart when trying to remove
the kitchen faucet - both the cartridge and the sprayer head cracked and leaked
the fresh water hose - was intact, but both ends expanded just enough to leak $2 fix at both ends
and the big nasty one... the water heater cracked.

we have not yet replaced it, all we did was bypass it and drain it. but we will have to fix it eventually. for now, no hot water and regular trips to the park's showers.

here's the new faucet tho
