Mama,<br><br>One thing that I don't think has been mentioned is where you live, where you would be bugging out to, and the availability of water in both places. I agree with all of the suggestions so far (carry what you can, small containers, etc...), but 72hrs is a long time and has the potential to turn into 96 or 120 or 144.... I think you should make some provision for aqquiring more, which means a filter or treatment process of some sort. If this is something you have already considered and taken care of, good for you.<br><br><br>Take care,<br><br>Andy
