[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1716199, member: 498"] We are far from full blown preppers. But we have considered things. Our water comes from a spring. Nothing upstream of the spring but some deer and cows. There is a pump and pressure tank under the house. But gravity would get water running in the house. Just not as much pressure. We heat with wood and just last week the wife cooked a roast on the wood stove. But while cutting wood this year we discussed how hard it would be without chain saw, hydraulic splitter, and quads to haul it. The wife cans fruit, veggies, and meat. We did stock up canning lids when we found a bunch of them. We already had plenty of canning jars. I do have 67 acres of irrigation that is flood irrigated. No power required for that. I could grow a lot of what ever is needed. Things here haven't changed that much since the irrigation rights were first established in 1873. Jar lids, matches, ammo, seeds, and enough fuel for the transition. What else does a person need? [/QUOTE]
