I Got a Shotgun, a Rifle and a Four wheel Drive.
A Country Boy Can survive.
That and I lived in a wall tent for 10 months out of the last 2 years. I can pretty much get along on pretty bare essentials.
That being said, I really like my leather couch and internet, and I am hoping everything stays on the straight and narrow.

As far as well water when the power goes out,get a submersible 12-24 volt pump.
The panels need to be sized a little larger than the depth of the water you will be pumping.They have filters that can take the rust and other crap out of the water.
The deepest I have pumped water this way was 180 feet,about 2.5 gallons a minute.

The well we use(landlord and myself) is quite small diametre,althoug I;m not sure of the exact measurement. To the best of my recollection I`d guess 4-5 inches maybe. Would you setup work for this�

I'd like to suggest moving the " Pure , Fresh, and Readily Available Well Water" subject over to it's own NON TOXIC area.
....e.g. it's own thread
Somebody get that rollin', I'll be over with some runnin' examples.
It's ALL good news.
Repeat ALL !

For the most part, civilized people will act in a civilized manner, even under stress. I sure hope you never have to test that theory!!  Me too. I hope the rising of the zombies doesn't occur until after I'm dead.....

I'm hoarding .22lr ammo, T.P., and tobacco. Figure it'll buy anything I need. actually you are right on target. the guy in bosnia said if you had tobacco or toilet paper, you could trade for just about anything. A friend of mine says if the city gets disrupted he is going to drive a heavy truck through the front door of a walgreens, every thing you need is there. Defendible, medicine, food, water, booze etc.

Maybe those atomic bomb shelter folks back in the 50's had it right. You get the wife and kids in your personal underground bunker, lock the blast proof door, and don't come out for a decade or so. you got to poop some time

Wait a minute, back the truck up! After rethinking that, maybe I'd prefer it happen before I die, because I certainly don't want to be zombiefied and have some hillbilly mofo plinking at my dead azz while I'm trying to eats me some flesh!...

You just absolutely NAILED something, my friend !
Witness the "Clean Up" and rescue efforts taking place in Christchurch, as we peck.
"For the most part, civilized people will act in a civilized manner, even under stress"
+ 1000
the problem has always been greg, most of the world is NOT civilized.
In years past while in phoenix i have had the power go out for over five days, so there is a generator.
couple of years ago the city filtration system was not doing it's job, so there is a katyln water filter system, and the list goes on.
most food stuffs are trucked into phoenix, and if that goes out we are in trouble quick. Same if electricity goes out, no gas pumping, cold boxes etc.

I'm better when I move.
