OK I spoke to soon Tuesday night the water line broke from freezing. I could not find parts until today so we have been without pressure water. Everything has been fixed and we had hot showers tonight. The waste holding tanks also froze and they have thawed out also. This information is to have you learn by my mistakes. When we were up in Ruidoso and it got down to five below zero our campsite included electric so we ran our electric space heater to save on propane, bad idea. The furnace is ducted to the water lines and holding tank areas to keep them from freezing, as long as you use your furnace everything works. Live and learn.
The boys here at the Ranch go out for breakfast on Thursdays without the ladies. They took me to the Paddock restaurant, a paddock is the working platform of an oil rig and we are right in the middle of the oil fields. The menu had items like the roustabout special, and the roughneck burrito. There were a lot of big guy's in there.

When it gets that cold you need to put a heater in your water bay to keep the pump from freezing. it is a big YES run your furnace to keep tanks from freezing. The best idea is RUN from the cold!!!!
