Happy Anniversary, Pam and Jim! You know that you have changed lives and dispelled bad information that is being thrown around by people who don't know their science.

I never though in a million years we would have to worry about having enough food in the Unites States. But the last 2 years have really opened my eyes. I have just begun my long term storage journey. I was wondering how we would get fresh water. I just ordered the Calcium Hypochlorite that solves one of my problems. Thanks so much for all the information.

I agree - her video on that opened my eyes too - we have a pool on our property and buy shock every year... I am sure what we buy isn't qualified for water purification but I surely am going to buy several bags of what RoseRed says to buy - and shock for our pool is very expensive so expect what you buy to purifiy your water is expensive too... but that bag I think will go a long way compaired to me putting it in my 7000 gallon pool.

Thank you for your wonderful videos, I am a 72 year old, a widow, a nurse and have always been a prep ahead person…the times we are in now is very scary even for those of our age that have been through some hard times, and your videos gives us some hope to carry on, our ancestors handled hard times in a different way than some do today, so to get back to Basics and stop talking and start doing something constructive and useful and taking responsibility for our families and ourselves…I pray for you and Jim, because you are true hero’s in my book…🙏🇺🇸🙏

Too bad she doesn't look at comments, love her style though....

Rose! I wanted to bring to your attention when I clicked on the calcium hypochlorite link to Amazon I noticed the packaging was different and upon looking at the active ingredient it lists "other" as well. I see it does have algae killer in it so I thought perhaps they linked a new version of TKO to the old description. They don't realize an "improved" version would be something we can't use. I could be wrong, but I wanted to bring to your attention.

I remember the flood of '93, and we had to wait in long lines for canned water. I'm in Iowa. Boy that was miserable for us all

When my mom was teaching me to pressure can back in '62 (I'm old) she taught me to pressure can water, because it was a good way to learn to pressure can without risking wasting food if the jars didn't seal. We also store water in the freezer, which along with blankets to fill voids in the freezer, helps keep food frozen for days. Why have water storage? One need only STOP and think about how much water one uses daily to see how valuable water is. Hope for the best, plan for the worst. Thankfully around here most folks have solar well houses or old-fashioned Amish style hand water pumps on their back porches.

It's exactly how I would speak to my loved ones. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart and may God bless you and Jim for sharing your knowledge and wisdom with us. P.S. What beautiful roses - you are so fortunate to have a gem like Jim (and vice versa)! ♥

Great video, as always! Many in the "prepper" community recognize that if people are going to be highly active, then 3 gallons minimum per person, per day is what you want to plan to have. Much of that is going to be for drinking, but then you also have washing yourself and cooking. Some even plan for 5 gallons per day. Obviously the elderly and the very young will not use so much, but do we want to put our eggs in that basket? Also, the person may not be able to participate in group washing and cooking activities, so do we really want to PLAN on them being able to do it? I think that too many fail to address recycling the water we would use in that situation and we need to be practicing that NOW because trying to learn it then is not the time. Just things for each person to think about for their own situation. Awesome job letting people know about pool shock, Pam! Simply fantastic!

Bleach does not smell the same as years past and no longer is labeled chlorine. Have you noticed that and have you used something different?

Great video! During the 2020 lockdowns, bleach was unobtainable...I am a bleach user (my choice) for my laundry and mopping my floors and bathroom cleaning.

Although I did not have a water sanitizing use for it, I was able to use it as regular bleach for my needs... Woo hoo for the 3 year anniversary!

Nope, not going to use my water for flushing the toilet. I lift the seat and line it with these really thick bags I have and it gets taken out to the trash once a day. You can add some cat litter if you want in the bag to assist with absorption and smell. Yep..thick plastic bags and cat litter will take care of the..well you know. I have done this lots of times and it works, great when camping too. I have learned so much over the years from folks that are Nomads. They know how to manage power, food and storage and of course manage water usage. They are experts as many of them have been doing these things for many years. KZread has thousands of videos on Nomadic living and off grid living. Some prepping videos age great too. I do really suggest to have some portable power using solar panels with battery storage like a Jackery or a bluetti. The bigger the unit the more you will have to keep things going that are essential like any medical devices or even a refrigerator. Learned it all on KZread.

Great idea using canning jars in between canning. I found the water available check, leak and expensive. I didn’t like the expanding jugs. I ordered your blue jugs. Yes expensive but sturdy. Thank you. Always hear something new. Update received our blue jugs. Nice !

Pretty blouse Pam, thank you for this pertinent information!!!

Love how in depth and to great detail you relay all of this, very informative! Fabulous shirt too. Thank you so much for providing all these great videos, I had no idea about the pool shock being an alternative to bleach, I already knew about the short shelf-life of chlorine bleach and I don't really use it that often to begin with so it always seemed a waste to store it and have to restock every six months for water sanitation purposes, if you can even remember to do so! My partner hates the tap water here in north west Florida so he bought us a gallon water distiller but it takes hours to distill and just wouldn't be efficient for storing water purposes, with the little money we have I hope to try and slowly add these things to our stock so that we are prepared in the future.

Glad I found this stream 💜, So informative, Precious Lady ❤️ Thank you for sharing. Been trying to get self sufficient n prepared.

Because I could have a house full of people in a short period of time . And god knows my grandchildren are not prepared.but they will come to nana .

We live in the country and when I store water I also use containers for flushing toilets as well. Our tank takes about 2 gallons so we also prepare for this as well. During a winter ice storm it is not unusual for us to be out of power for up to a month so it's great to have. I do love the idea of using canning jars for water storage until use. How clever!!

Pam, I have been prepping since 1998. I started with the "Cassandra Project" to prepare for Y2K possibilities. I must tell you that of all the sites I have visited and all the information I have gathered, yours is by far the most relevant. The information you teach us is both invaluable and entertaining.
