Half Waxed LD - And a Near Miss
DW and I did a wax-on and a wax-off for several hours this morning after we unwinterized the LD.  We got half done before old age caught up to me.

As we were flushing the water tank and other unwinterizing steps, I took a peek at the water pump just to make sure all was tight.   When we last winterized, it was very cold and while I thought I had re-connected the water line to the pump I now know I didn't.  If I didn't have a strong heart I think I would have blown a heart valve when I saw the disconnected water line.  I was lucky today.   Lesson learned ... my additional step when unwinterizing is to check to make sure the water lines are connected to the pump.   That was 4-5 hours ago and I'm still in shock about a near miss with an open water pump.   Deep breath!
