Artesian Spring Water

For years we have occasionally passed near to an artesian spring that is set up for people to get spring water.  I don't know the rate of flow but it is probably about a gallon a minute from each of two pipes.  People line up and bring many large containers to fill.  The parking area is most often full and holds about ten cars.  A few weeks ago we stood on the rocks in the line.  As we approached the pipe we saw the people rinsed out their blue water cooler style bottles with the spring water before refillng them.  So we did the same with our red and white Coleman jug, the one that was a wedding gift - thirty-five years ago.  We'll go again to the low place between two long steep hills with it's fountain.  That water was good.  Another item for the retroactive bucket list.  Maybe someday I'll add a picture.
