Pluggers by Rick McKee for August 20, 2016

If we want bottled water. we run tap water through a filter and refill ours. Add a touch of lemon or other fruit juice if we want to be really fancy. Then again, I still prefer tap water or water out of the hose (after I run it enough to cool it).

Just remember to actually wash the bottles once in a while, or when they start to turn green, whichever comes first.

Visitors say my tap water has a taste. I don’t know. What the pump supplies from my well is what it is, but the iron is removed by the water softener salt.

Mmmm! Water out of a hose! Tastes like the air in a tire.

Even when they come directly for the store, I doubt very many of them contain “triple filtered mountain spring water” . Or anything more than tap water. I do use bottled water for in my truck or out fishing, but that is for convenience. Normally I use tap water with ice in my Tervis coffee mug (after the morning coffee naturally)

All ours are “Spring Fed” (’cause we use a well.)

I once lived near a water bottling plant. I thought it was funny when locals bout the water. Unless it was for convenience.

Actually, the river had been cleaned. It was the old rusted pipes that were the main problem & harder to correct.
