Reply I have lived in Az all my life. As a youth my father, who was a fisherman, took me fishing with him to Roosevelt lake often. As I have visited there since it is very sad to see the places we used to fish above the water level. Sometimes it takes a visual to help you to know that we should be doing all we can not to waste the water. I go by the moto in Mexico, "If it's yellow let it mellow, if its brown flush it down.
As for storing water to drink in case of emergency I have 3 55 gallon barrels full of water that I empty in my garden once a year and refill. I also keep 7 gallon jugs inside as well. Remember that we all want to be prepared for when the food, water or electricity goes out. It is important that we prepare in these different ways so we can be a part of the solution and not a big part of the problem when those times arise. NEED HELP! Let us know. We are willing to help you be prepared.I have lived in Az all my life. As a youth my father, who was a fisherman, took me fishing with him to Roosevelt lake often.
