Okay,
Thanks.
I was surprised to see it go south so quickly in a month or so.
I have a border creek between my property and another, it’s close enough in an emergency to access. I’ve done that in years past, long time ago. It seems that keeping water a long time is not necessary, six months, then replenish before every winter, if necessary. Accumulate new containers and repeat, those who do not repeat/control their supplies are asking for trouble keeping stuff too long...then you deal with mold and bacteria.
I think we have some opportunities to catch up, if something happens, a few days maybe except for food as that must be maintained sensibly...
City dwellers have the most risk and must be prepared continually, as life can change almost instantaneously in high population areas.
