Thanks, Gordon — that was very informative. I do think about our water supply here in the desert. As transplants from Cleveland, we definitely need any information about life in Phoenix Metro area. We’ve gotten our water treatment system in place w/RO in kitchen at our home. I do miss drinking the tap water in Cleveland (and Baltimore too) but that’s about all I miss about life back East!

I was a RE/MAX Realtor in OH before retiring and coming to AZ.

Thank you,
