Lake Erie's Algae Woes Began Building A Decade Ago

5. Thanks, but we're not in bad shape personally

We were able to get 2 cases yesterday and 6 gallons today. My husband and I can drink other things beside water, but we have 3 big dogs. We can use tap water for dishes and laundry, just need good water for brushing our teeth and rinsing produce, so we'll be ok for a while.

There are lots of people here who can't afford to go out and buy water, those are the ones suffering, standing in lines, it's hot and humid today. But so many people have helped us, there were 2 college students from the Ann Arbor area who rented a truck and filled it with water, drove here and gave it away. There really are some good people.
