Get aportable swimming pool to store water. There is also an adapter for a drill that will pump water from a well - we plan on getting this nifty little gadget soon! And, like Kymber, we have a rain barrel too! Stock up on water - doesn't matter how as long as u have it - great post Jen!ErinAndBradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02305877203325473253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-426656373260268981.post-89025199829023716952009-04-10T08:55:00.000-07:002009-04-10T08:55:00.000-07:00Kymber- sounds like you have a tip to share!Twell-...Kymber- sounds like you have a tip to share!<BR/><BR/>Twell- yes that is for sure, and a bit worrisome without some serious plans.Humble wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02823200562312609670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-426656373260268981.post-35200786030699575662009-04-10T08:24:00.000-07:002009-04-10T08:24:00.000-07:00So true.

But last spring I discussed my fears with my hubby and we sprung right into action - we re-directed all of our rain gutters to 3 rainbarrels (able to hold 60 gallons of water when full). We also bit the bullet and saved for a Berkey water filtration system. This set-up has brought me much peace as we now use rainwater for all of our drinking water and because we get so much rainfall up here - the rainbarrels are constantly overflowing! And then we learned a nify little trick this winter - we could melt snow and run the melted snow through the Berkey - and one thing we also got a lot of in Canada is snow!kymberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02607117635648274823noreply@blogger.com
