I've got a 67 Gallon spare, plus a 50 gallon backup, which I will also be using for grey water storage. Plus whatever is in my R.V., about 36 gallons. So I think I can be taking baths all day.

You're good to go, Uncle! I bring about 100 gallons and it covers the First Mate and I for daily showers, real ones where you actually rinse, not that playa barely-use-a-drop nonsense. It also covers dishwashing and usually a shower or two for someone at camp, boiling stuff in pots of water, whatever.
You'll be totally set for water.

I have a 50 gallon ~ish tank that we used last year for double showers and never ran dry. This year will be the test of that...!

Since most of the fires I've been starting seem to be electrical in nature, I'm not using water fur that.
