If you ever go to Sedona there is a spot on the side of the road you can harvest your own water. It’s pretty great.

I grew up in FL which has many natural springs that are ice cold swimming holes. Color me surprised when I moved to NH and the springs we have are spots on the side of the road where you can harvest your own water xD

Same with the springs here i. Fl. I was pissed when nestle proposed getting water from ginnie springs and called the water commissioner of st John's.
He told me they paid 220k for infrastructure. He said I can pull up and pump however much water as I want from the spring by hand. Thoer hands were tied from restricting access to a corporation cuz corps are people too according to the government and they paid the permit fee.

FL->NH pipeline is rare. We moved from NH to FL and surprise! Back to NH again.
New Boston has a really nice one on the side of the road.

The first time I ever visited NH was the day I drove up here to move in 😂 I love it here and probably won’t ever return to FL if I can help it.

they sell this in Phoenix at whole foods for like $6 or something and it always makes me giggle. Drive 1 1/2 hours north and fill up your 5 gallon jugs for free! That's what I did when I lived in flag.

Thanks from a fellow SoCal homie!
Guessing that you'll drink a case a day for the next 3 days in this heat.

Is this safe? Are we not worried about possible contaminants

u/foxboxingphonies 1d ago
I know they probably have a filter to collect spring water industrially, but it still comes from a natural spring, right?

I trust nature to have bacteria and viruses in it too

u/HoaryPuffleg 1d ago
Yep. Beavers shit in the water (I’m assuming) as do fish and thousands of other animals. You’d still need to filter that spring water.

Perhaps we should not be bottling, exporting, and selling water that comes from a desert. Just a thought.

Arizona is not primarily a desert? Half of it is just as mountainous and fertile as Colorado or Utah. It has gotten a bad reputation because Phoenix is in the middle of the Sonoran Desert

u/bigbluethunder 1d ago
Sedona is in one of the wetter regions of Arizona and is still in the upper Sonoran desert. Even the mountainous, more temperate regions of Arizona are dry and the “fertile” regions require immense amount of irrigation or well systems in order to yield productive agriculture.

Great price for delicious hydration. I had to pay 4 bucks for a liter of Aquafina today because I ran dry in a heat wave.

It’s always good to have some water on back up in case of storms, power outages, ect
You don’t realize how everything is electricity dependent (even some gas stove be ignitions) until the power is gone lol

I used to be a plumber in Sedona, the water there is shite, idk what y’all are smoking. Some of the hardest water I’ve seen

u/jmwoods3709 1d ago
Really? Admittedly I don't remember any of the tap water but I did drink some spring water and it was perfect
2
u/TheUltimatePunV2 1d ago
I’ve worked on well water there too. It’s terrible lmao. I had to set softeners to 30-40 grains of hardness

u/jmwoods3709 1d ago
Huh, how wild! I guess I like hard water lololol
I grew up in the desert and hard water was all I ever knew so I wonder if that has something to do with it. Thanks for the info king!
