G'day from Australia and to be honest i used to live on well water for 5-6 years and it was the most purest and beautiful water i ever lived on as it was 26 feet down and basalt filtered through a old underground river bed and supplied from magma tube water.
Have an old hand dug well on my property that’s at least a hundred years old according to my Ancestry research. It is lined with stacked stones instead of brick though. Seems like it was 26 or 28 feet when I measured in early 80’s Tried filling it in with a dozer but didn’t work because it opened back up. Must have a running stream of water that washed the dirt fill in away.
@@wildcatwilly Probably is, I’ve never tested. I thought about using for irrigation at one time though since I have home on city water. I had a deep water well dug 140’ that puts out 60+ gallons a minute the driller said that I use for irrigation
Why would anyone try to cover up a good whale put a good top on it and keep it you may need it when the electricity goes off and there ain't no more power for your water
I am from the East (NH). I did not know that some parts of he US build cisterns. I guess I though cisterns were only used in the Middle East.@@wildcatwilly

In what state are you located?
Why do you ask?
I am from the East (NH). I did not know that some parts of he US build cisterns. I guess I though cisterns were only used in the Middle East.@@wildcatwilly
They were huge around here especially back in the day
I guess I forget how dry the plains states become. In the East, we receive so much rain.@@wildcatwilly
Yes we had a drought this year.
