This morning we woke to see red now fading to pink water. Darren asked me to call the water company and they said "it was safe to shower and drink". I am not so sure so as a precaution a friend and I did some research and found out that the chemical that spilled in the water was Potassium permanganate. After further research in large quantities it can be quite toxic.
So I decided that we would use our stored water supply for drinking and hand/body washing. Which made me to think about the storing of water. (See the next posting for links.) I can't store water for everyone. I have just enough for 2 days of very conservative use for one house. But I have decided to change that!
