The Greywater Hose - How do you store it?

Bought a greywater hose in a moment of weakness today at Camping World... It was grey. I just had to get it. We passed by a couple of opportunities to dump our greywater for free on our T-day California Coast camping trip & Wildfire avoidance trek, but without a greywater hose, we just couldn't do it.

So now that I have the grey greywater hose, where do I store it? If I keep it in the van it will stink, and most likely leak drops of greywater all over the place.

I store the grey water hose with the fresh water hose. Both are rinsed, emptied, coiled and the ends are screwed together. Each hose by itself. That keeps any drops inside and all little critter and bugs out. Then they go under the dinette, near the back door for easy access.

Screwing the ends together... Now why didn't I think of that? It's perfect. We'll probably keep it in a separate bag from the freshwater hose, but putting the ends together solves the leaking stinky water problem.

Before stowing, I swing thew hose in large circles over my head cowboy lasso style. Yee Ha! That gets the water out.

PS. Don't do this close to your van, passengers, dogs, etc.
