Power went out last night (while I was watching episode one of the old Brideshead, mind you).
I woke up to an impending flood, as water was pouring into the back patio from the alley. I got drenched to the bone shoveling gravel to divert the rain. Ugh.

Then we've got something in common. Last evening I got drenched, at least to my underwear if not to the bone, coming home from the legacy fund board of directors' meeting. Serves me right for wearing underwear. ;D Anyway, it was raining hard when I left the meeting, and about halfway home there was this ominous pause in the rain. The fund secretary, who was walking with me, said, "Oh, the rain is stopping!" I said, "Maybe it's just getting ready for something worse." It was. Within five minutes or so, the rain and wind let loose such that it was like getting hit with a blast from a fire hose. I took refuge under the awning of my old building until the hail stopped. ...
When I got back to my place, I stripped off my wet clothes just inside my front door. I was putting my clothes in the dryer when the fire alarm went off. :P I told myself, "This is a false alarm, the rain probably shorted something out in the garage," so I took my time, dried off, put on dry clothes, then went out into the fire tower--taking a book with me. I was out there for close to half an hour.
It was not a pleasant evening. :-\
Oh, yes. You should search on eBay. I believe I've seen a replacement for your Big Jim camper--if you need to replace it. ;D

There are lots of listings on eBay for Big Jim and his accessories. I've even seen a listing for an action figure identified as Big Jim's buddy, Big Jeff. ;D
I think I begin to understand Big Jim's real attraction: the dude had muscles for days. ... ;D
