Well that's what I was thinking about the milk jugs. And really I was
surprised that she mentioned it, because it really seemed below her
order of things to offer the suggestion. Plus, the idea is to keep the
interior as un- cluttered ans possible. That's why I'm thinking on
going with a couple of thin line 5 gal. heavy plastic containers with
either an electric or air pump and using a shower nozzle for supply.

Yes, keep the drinking water in the cooler!


Nothing wrong with gallon milk jugs, and a lot right with them.
I've had plastic milk jugs full of water bounce around in my car trunk
for years. They're tough enough.
Big advantage is they're square, so don't waste space like a bunch or
little round bottles.
Just have to make sure they fit in your cooler.
Shower bags are fine too, and collapsing as they shed water is an
advantage. But you need a larger intial space, and can't store in nooks
and crannies like you can with milk jugs.
Your wife has common sense. That's also a plus.
