Bigbore, don't you live in NW Iowa? Our subsoil here in NWIA is so darned dry it's going to take a long time to rebuild it. Pretty soon it'll be too cold to be able to park a tank outside the house. I've heard of people bringing in water to fill the well but that'll get spendy.
I get all of my spraying water from a hog site a mile and a half away. The well there is in a practically limitless vein and so far the owner doesn't want any money for the water I use. Is there anything like that in your area? A lot of farmers around here have 1500 gallon water tanks on wheels just sitting around this time of year. I had to haul in water 30 years ago or so when the line to the house froze. We had a cistern that I would fill with a few thousand gallons of water once a week or so. It was a pain to haul water in the middle of the winter but there was no other choice. Jim
