Kool-aide: 2-1/2 gallons: $1My tap water doesn't taste like kiwi-strawberry though..
. Good idea Don, the salt additive for sure..
I don't know that adding the salt was that important or not? We wanted to work at hydration tho, and as much as we sweated on land, probly should have been taking salt tabs, but i like the Kool-Aid approach better than empty Reverse Osmosis water available at the hotels and on the boats anyway. Took a $1/12-pack of an off-brand mix actually, and 8 pint zip locks with 1 cup of sugar pre-measured in each, along with a couple of 2-quart plastic jugs and a few 1-quart jugs, plus a small salt container and a measuring spoon. Easy to mix each day using half the sugar suggested on the package, then reused the ziplocks actually. The hotels we used had 5 gallon water dispensers so we used the 2-quart jugs to retrieve water for the mix and for the coffee maker I took.I knew I should have used the blue font,
OT- I lived in Anton(still have one of my dearest friend lives there) and Levelland for a couple of years back int he late seventies and early eighties.. I miss it there!
