Do you take water for granted? 

What would happen if it was dirty? 

Well, we've been dealing with that today.  106 degrees and we have no clean water.  :(  Thankfully I had a gallon of water left over from an event where I had to make coffee off site!  And that's what I've been drinking.  We took showers in water that is a little muddy but a lot better than no shower at all! 

After the plumber came out and charged $65 for a 3 minute service call to tell us he couldn't do anything but we'd have to pull the well and cut the bottom off, the case had probably caved a bit at the bottom. . .   I called a neighbor to ask if he knew anyone who pulled wells and he said he'd help J do it (J has no plumbing experience at all and didn't have a clue what to do)!  Sweet!  So, J came home early from work and they got busy.  C suggested we let it settle for several hours before using it to make sure it's good. . .  A big giant huge thanks to our awesome neighbor C for helping John work on our water well!  We will hopefully have clean water again tomorrow.
