Uh Oh, Puddle Under The Gray Tank + Dinner + Sunset

Just North of Temecula on I-15, I ran over a piece of metal in the road.  I was boxed in by traffic and couldn't avoid it.  Swerving in the motorhome, towing the Ranger pickup is not a good idea anyway.  I heard it hit underneath the coach so I pulled over at the first chance to look for damage.  Didn't see anything so went on to Flagstaff.  (little did I know that the gray tank was punctured but empty so it wasn't leaking)  When I parked at the Sandia Casino outside Albuquerque, NM, I noticed the puddle under the tank.  Sure enough a small cut in the lower corner of the tank.



Small cut.  You can just see a drop forming at the bottom



I cleaned the area with acetone, and filled the cut with my hot glue gun.  Then patched over the area with Eternabond tape.  No leak! Looks like a permanent repair.




Fixed!


Fixed the chicken with peanut sauce recipe this evening using Yoshida sauce instead of the peanut sauce.  I used too much Yoshida and had to drain some off.  Pretty good but not as good as with the peanut sauce.  If you haven't tried the Calrose medium grain rice, you should.  I use 1 1/2 cup rice and one 14.5 oz can of chicken broth is the rice cooker.
