Well, I just got back from my Memorial Day weekend trip and it was fantastic. Batteries lasted, weather was warm enough I didn't need to break out the Mr. Heater. Water tank did well. I so appreciate everyone's feedback on the trip.

I did have one small problem come up that I would like some advice on.

I am in an 1810h with the bathroom right next to the kitchen area. I ran the shower for the first time to fill up some basins to rinse dishes. When I did so there seemed to be water that leaked out underneath the corner of the bathroom walls. I didn't realize it was happening until the third time I ran the shower. I got the water dried up on the surface but should I be worried about what is going on underneath the bathroom floor?
 
Joy, if your trailer is made like my 1707, and it likely is, you should be able to remove the trim panel at the front bottom of the bathroom entrance (under the door). Mine was held on by two or three screws, and once they are out, it just comes off. With it off, you can see under the shower pan and should be able to check for any water damage in the flooring.

I'm puzzled that you had this leak though. As I understand it, you were using the shower wand to fill wash basins. You should have been able to do this without any water "splash over". And, if you weren't "sloppy", the leak must be at a pipe connection that's under the bathroom, or possibly in the bathroom sink cabinet. This is something you should locate and fix if it exists.

Glad you had a good time on your first campout!
