57. No water, no flushy!

Mon Jan 4, 2016, 01:24 AM

Jan 2016

Trust me. I live in the national forest.

When I lose power here -- it happens sometimes -- I lose my heat, my water, and just about everything else. It basically puts me back into the Stone Age.

A septic tank is useless if one has no water with which to flush. And if there's 150 people there, that is a lot of poop to flush.

My regards.
