we have a rain water collection system for our garden which uses four 55 gallon barrels. for the house, there is the 50 gallons in the water heater and several 5 gallon water jugs scattered around the house. we have 8 water bricks which can lock together to stack safely or, as we have them, slide under the sofa. we have a water bob for the bathtub, should need arise. every time i can a load, if there is an empty space, i can jars with water and store them with my canned juices. we use a berkey water filter to “finish” drinking water. we are near a substantial creek, but may not be able to rely on it for water as the town sewer system is pumped and in a disaster, the pumps open into local creeks.
