B_O,

When we lived in the Thicket (just outside Beaumont) we used well water. We only had to go down 100 feet to get water from the aquifer. The water was delicious, filtered as it was through fine grains of sugar sand.

Also, I remember digging down two feet or so in the woods and finding a large running stream of water coursing under me. My point is that water is plentiful in Hardin and Jefferson counties. You don't need to hire a water-witch to find some! If you're on a muni system then there are going to be problems (WAY too much chlorine and other junk) but the well and artisian spring water always seemed fine to me. N'est pas vrai?

Great write-up BTW. Now about your momma's underwear.....

Cheers,
Jim
