    Not sure if Riverview RV Park will be repaired from flooding west of Loveland on Big Thompson but you could use KOA Lakeside in la Porte/Ft Collins Co. We’ve had the bus there. Or Dakota Ridge Rv Park Golden co, a sister to Elk Meadows. A Marathon H3-45 #714 is there now. Then you could take I 70. West into Utah. Take Hwy 6 to Price/American Forks and SLC to catch I 84 into Idaho and Boise and at Ontario take 20/26 towards Bend then wind down Mackenzir river to Springfield/Eugene. I 80 thru Wyoming can be windy and lots of trucks since 80 goes to both coasts

    If I drain my water system the easiest way to prime the water pump for me is to fill the water tank to a depth that is higher than the water pump. Then I open a water faucet or any valve to allow Mr. Gravity to fill the water system that is empty of water. Obviously all pipes above the tank water level will remain dry, but the water will flow through the pump into the pipes and fixtures at or below the tank water level.

    I never turn on any pump unless I am confident it has been primed. Some say it is OK, but I would prefer to not take a chance.
