Default No water---well tank busted
Holy cow, I was laying in bed, then I heard this water trickling from outside my window. Then it sounded like a car hitting a tree. I jumped up and looked out the bathroom window and seen our beloved 50+ year old water well tank looking like niagra falls...... Looks like we will be without water for a while..... Never fails

Water tanks are not hard to find or install.

Thanks for the offer. How big are the tanks? I might can use them as overflow? Or cow troughs?

About 5 ft tall and 18" in diameter. They would make some good smokers too.

Hmmm. Sounds appealing for the smoker part but, not too sure if you want to use galvanized materials on a cooker. If they ain't galv inside, they'd be ok though.

Once the galvanizing burns off, it should be ok, huh?

That takes some pretty high heat and at what point would you know for sure that all the coating is gone? Not a killjoy but, it's kind of a crap shoot to assume that it's all gone.

I got it!!!! Feed the inlaws with it first!
