I'd boil water if I could get some water...

It's Halloween weekend and a full moon. With a 3 hour nap after dinner, I'm now in zombie mode. I've got a client meeting in the morning and thinking it's time to get some real sleep.
Explained in an earlier blog, we were on a boil water order from the Public Works Department because they repaired a water main in the road leading to my condo.

The order was rescinded yesterday and now at 2am... "We ain't got no stinkin' water"

Right, we've got no water, so I took a walk in the opposite direction as the repair site because 4 trucks with flashing lights were a hundred yards or so down the street. They used a small tractor and dug a hole to fix what must have been another break in the pipe.

I've got the feeling this will be an all-nighter before the water comes back on.
In preparation, we did bottle a few gallons of tap water prior to the first episode so a quick wash before bed will happen. Just like camping!

Given the age of water systems all across the US it would be best for everyone to secure 4 or 5 gallons in closet. AS shown in Flint, Mich even the water pipes going into older houses and buildings is suspect.
I have the same memories, Chat. On the flip side I remember some of the good things about the cold war like putting a man on the moon and all the NASA inventions like the microchips that came out that venture. I grew thinking we would put a man on Mars by 2020.
