Today I want to share some water hauling photos. We have had many occasions now when we have had to haul water. Sometimes we are lucky, and it is only the inside taps that are shut down. Then we can access water through taps in the yard. However, sometimes we are not so lucky. One time we were without water for three days. We collected rain water from the roof for cleaning and bathing, and hauled water from a borehole for drinking and eating. The water board, which is right next door to us, allowed us to get some large containers filled with water during this period as well. It is difficult to be without water when your family is close to 90 people, you do laundry by hand, you walk long distances to school, and you play football(soccer) in the dirt in your bare feet!...
