If you've got a Westy, I'd suggest that you take the center cardboard
roll from a roll of paper hand towels and put it down over your sink
drain and blow real hard to get the residual water out of your drain.
Mine is currently patched with JB Weld and holds the residual water very
well.

I just drain my holding tank and leave the pllug out a couple days to let
the tank dry, then replace it. Also run the faucet until nothing comes
out. There has never been enough water left in the line to freeze/crack
it.
