Making Water, Water Everywhere!

Well it is a little bit embarrassing but here goes.

It was a nice day, and seemed to be a good time to make water.  So we fired up the water-maker, and started our day. What could go wrong? Over the next 1.5 hours we lazily got ready for swimming with the iguanas. Cassidy decided to stay to make our daily bread. So off we went and what a great morning it was.  In fact it was so great with all the wildlife that we did not even return until nearly lunchtime.  Unfortunately the water-maker had not magically turned itself off, and the bread-maker, who shall remain nameless, when asked why the water-maker was still on was quoted as saying "nobody told me".  Which according to Bigfoot sources is a very reasonable explanation.  So a quick dash down to the water tank confirmed the wet truth. The bilge board was actually floating and the water was flowing just as natural as can be right into Shannon's electronic bilge, and the children’s blanket storage bilge.  Well the water-maker was immediately shut down, and the faucet was turned on "full blast" to start draining the water tank.  Four hours later the bilges were dry. The printer, which had been set out to dry, had been filled with popcorn by Valiant who also used the "nobody told me" defense when told he was never to put anything inside Mamma's printer.  And that is the story of the water-maker!

We are having a super great time down here!
