    "I live on a beautiful, natural, free flowing river. The water comes from streams and springs that initiate in the coastal mountain range in Northernmost California. I have a pump that goes down into the river and pumps the water out and up into my house. I can swim in the river and get out , but never have to take a shower. The water is so beautiful. I can fish in a deep 42 ft pool behind my home. I look out a tree covered mountains, elk, deer, bears, otters, seals, etc. I can get on my Kayak and float down to the Pacific Ocean. As I walk along the street with my dog, I can pick blackberries and eat them. I take a deep breath of clean, clear, moist ocean air. "
