An expedient oxygen absorber for a 5 gallon storage container can be made by placing a golf ball size piece of steel wool and a tablespoon of salt inside a paper napkin and placing it in the container. The salt will absorb the residual moisture and the steel wool will naturally absorb the oxygen.

Make Your Own Electrolyte Beverage (Gatorade, Pedialyte, etc.)
To one quart of water add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 8 teaspoons of granulated sugar. Thoroughly mix all ingredients together.
This will replace electrolytes lost by the body due to dehydration caused by diarrhea, vomiting, excessive sweating, etc. A package of Kool-Aid, Crystal Light, etc. may be added to enhance the flavor and color.

i love it! i would use my trusty canoe to travel that water, staying above the waterline at all times ;-)

Canoes are a good thing because they stay above the water line.
The water in the pic is a little shallow for a canoe and has some really big rocks under the surface...not a good thing for a canoe.
Thanks.
RW
it looked a little rocky... but the other nice thing about a canoe is you can portage or go "around the waterline" ;-)
cheers!

They have canoe races at different times down the rivers in my area but it requires portage around quite a few dams along the way.
Stay above the water line my friend!
