In the other regions defense, I’m sure they might say the same about your water simply because it’s different.
Unless you’re talking well water, that stuff can have a gnarly Sulfur smell to it, though still safe. Can’t seem to get used to that kinda smell though lol
Funny story relating to that, when I was 5 I was told that you couldn’t dig more than 6 a few feet in Florida because you would hit the “water line,” so I assumed that if you dug further you’d just hit the ocean and drown. Also yes the water there tastes like sulfur all the time and it’s nasty af, had to learn to get over my aversion to water after living there early on.
Florida water is weird here in the NW. Tap water is fairly “hot” in the summer since the lines are close to the surface. But YMMV. Our bathroom water is distinctly different than the kitchen water, in a tiny house, 8-years old. 🤷🏻♂️

Water quality varies quite a bit. The water in Seattle is significantly better than the water in Florida, for example.

The water line in Florida is much shallower than that.
You’re absolutely right, I didn’t think too hard about that part of the story and that kid-brain interpreted “a few feet” as “as tall as my dad.”
The water line in Florida is above the ground
Here in lies the funny part, water line (edge of the water) vs water line (pipe that transfers water).
