Hi Dave,

I've been living for years with an ice chest and a freezer for "refrigeration" in my house.  The freezer is a tiny chest style, which I keep in the cold shed and freeze gallon bottles.  I exchange them once a day and keep the ice chest in my kitchen nice and cool.  I bet you could do it without the freezer in Vermont!

Blessings,
Kelly
