I carried the two gallon water bucket. My brother carried the three gallon one when water was brought from the springhouse up to our log home. The outhouse was up the hill from the back door. We had a cistern in between but the water in it was used for laundry. I can remember making candles ... kerosene was expensive.
Well im moving back to the reservation soon. Gonna have to see if I can set up some preps. Running water and utilities and satelite service avaiable,
We have a clean unused outhouse just in case but it has black widows there.
