Good water Maybe this is a silly little notebook entry, but here it is. Healthy, pure water is very important for us. Where I live there has been a lot of industry, now and in the past. The house gets well water. There is a pipe that goes way down into the ground and then a pump in the house basement that pumps up the water. I don't totally trust the well water because of nearby industry and I am afraid of contaminates. To me, the water from the tap has a tiny bit of strange taste to it. It might be legally healthy, but I still wonder about it. So, I try to get water from a store nearby that has a machine that filters the water. If you bring your own empty gallon jug, you can get a gallon of water for 39 cents. I live in the United States. We use gallons and quarts instead of liters.
