We hauled water of a neighbors (even though there was drilled a well - we still needed a pump and a pressure tank and generators to pump the water). We a new milk cow, so we went through about 35 gallons water a day just to be with her! That didn't include drinking water for us or water for laundry, cooking, dishes and carpet cleaning. We used a bucket with bags (located our own shed) with the bathroom. I did so laundry towards the wood cook stove and hung it on racks in front of the stove to dry.
In the expensive vacation event you either cannot afford or 30kw diesel generator are apprehensive about buying one of these then don't worry, you've still got ways to visit green. You can get outdoor solar powered lights to replace your existing bulbs. These charge within day, after which they run off batteries at night, or when stimulated.
