As a Registered Maine Guide I am prepared...but just last week, I remembered something I hadn't thought of. If we were to stay in place with no way to get gasoline or kero or fuel, why don't I have the old hand pump hooked up to my well?

I know I can get water from the lake and filter it or boil it but what happens when the filters and the fuel/electric run out? I have a deep well with a check valve on it and I know I can pump safe water with the hand pump.

It's my new fix it chore now! I have the pipes and connectors and rather than wait for when I might need it, I am going to be proactive and set it up now!
