I’m fortunate. I live one county upstream from Clay.
My son’s team was supposed to travel there tomorrow night for a basketball game, but instead they switched the game to our county. When my son said it was because Clay didn’t have any water, I assumed that meant a pipe had burst because of the cold weather.
Pretty wild.
Prayers for all.
The water in Charleston has always tasted bad to me. I used to spend time with my grandparents in Charleston and could not drink it unless it was mixed with a drink mix.
And I was thankful we drank a lot of what my relatives call “pop” — RC was the name of it, I believe.
I don’t know what made the water taste bad, but there was a Union Carbide factory down at the Kanawaha River.
Or maybe it was just my imagination, because even the well water in the country made me gag.
Most of my kin are in the Kanawaha and Clay/Braxton areas. Hope everyone got the warning quickly.
