Back in MA, I had a neighbor who in the '70s built a house with survivalist considerations. It has an indoor pool, and available water is one reason why. I just had a thought. If there were any hint that water could be an issue, a childrens pool full of water in the outside shed, covered, might be the way to go. And buckets for water collection from rain.

I don't think I'd get that extreme unless it seemed that water supply could be an issue.

Thanks for the tip! We have a plastic sandbox outside for the grandkids. I could dump the sand and fill it with water. It has a cover to keep animals out. I do have trash barrels that I could use with plastic garbage bags, but the childrens pool is better. Also will fill bathtub at any sign of a shortage.
