water, water everywhere (lyn)

We are now back on the Cape and have learned that on June 22 at 3pm, the boil water order was finally lifted.

We can now:

·    Drink from the tap (though that’s unlikely)

·    Put ice cubes in our drinks

·    Throw away the paper plates

·    Put clothes in the washing machine, and not think twice about it

·    Brush our teeth without using a glass of Poland Springs

·    Wash food easily without having to boil the water first and ladle it out

·    Wash our hands without using Baby Wipes or Purell

·    Take a shower without thinking of coliform and E-Coli

·    Go out to eat in a Falmouth Restaurant

Life is back to normal.
