6. You're telling me


Currently I am on a well that is spring fed, pumped by a puny jet pump at a depth of 25 feet.

If most people only knew how much water they really use they would be shocked.

Our well has stayed relatively clean and will never dry up (unless the spring does) but refill is very slow when we are in drought conditions.

We have to budget water now due to lack of rainfall. It is not fun. No laundry. You can wash about half a load of dishes. Fill 1/3rd of a stock tank.

I shudder to think what people will do if there ever are widespread water shortages. :scared:
