Ask him when the rains come. Go to the general store and buy enough mortar to build a decent sized cistern. Get a shovel, rope, and tackle. Once we get back to the farm we'll locate a n area where run off is heavy and dig a hole, mix mortar with cactus juice, and build a cistern for catching floodwater.
