**couldn't turn hose on because of previous "misuse" of the hose & the ensuing mess & fights between 3 kids.
Dating myself here, but there was a bucket and ladle on the back porch for anyone to use, Dad would fill it from the well (from the farm's windmill)every morning. There was well water in the house, too, but somehow the other water tasted better. Deeper well maybe?? It seemed to stay cool all day.
