It is perhaps during these hot, humid days of Summer, after mowing the lawn, weeding the garden, and performing all manner of sweaty, uncomfortable jobs around the house, that we notice more and appreciate most that first tall, ice-cold glass of clear water. It beckons to us as we stumble into the house trying to escape the heat. Yet, as we hoist that tumbler filled with liquid relief, do we take the time to understand its significance? This week on Abandoned Mine Posts, we suggest an article from the New York Times that provides some insight into the mysterious, wondrous, and totally unique little molecule we call water.
