Thanks to all who replied to my post. I've been away from my mail for
the last week while my wife had back surgery.
Yes, the hoses have a matching female fitting on it, but that doesn't

ground being rolled up.
I will look into the caps recommended in the other posts. Thanks to all
again!
Peace,
Pat
P.S. Merry Christmas...or whatever you choose to celebrate...if anything!
