Andy the RV Doctor just departed El Casa Móvil De Pennington. His verdict: nothing can be done until the ice dams melt away, as the HUGE amounts of ice in every nook and cranny block access to everything/anything that might be broke. No fix today, in other words... not that I really was expecting a fix. The only good news is Andy feels the issue MIGHT be a holding tank overflow due to ice blockage, as opposed to a broken water line but there's no way of telling until the ice dams melt away.
Andy has been a busy, busy man the last few days. He remarked in passing that nearly everyone living in an RV in the Clovis/Portales area froze up in one form or another last week, with some folks experiencing catastrophic damage. That's obviously good for his bid'niz but not so good for us RV-dwellers. I suppose there's some small consolation of the "misery loves company" variety, but it's small consolation, indeed.
So... the really bad news is three more days of livin' off bottled water, at the very least. The only faint ray of hope is that we'll be in the mid-60s to lower 70s for the next week, so a fix should be forthcoming the first part of next week. That's all well and good but I see at least ONE night in the Holiday Inn Express in my future. That's mainly because I can do the stand-up bath thing with water heated on the stove, but washing my hair is problematic under those conditions.
I guess I'll just pretend I'm "in the field" for the next few.
