If you were to offer a thirsty man all wisdom, you would not please him more than if you gave him a drink.
~ Sophocles
These last days of summer have actually been the hottest. I am so thankful for a tall glass of ice water on a sweltering hot summer day. I take it for granted so often but there is nothing in this world like it. Here’s to a tall glass of water! Ahhhhh.
Potable, n. Suitable for drinking. Water is said to be potable; indeed, some declare it our natural beverage, although even they find it palatable only when suffering from the recurrent disorder known as thirst, for which it is a medicine.
~ Ambrose Bierce, American writer (1842-1914)

Water is refreshes and replenishes on a hot day. Our water came from the sky today, and left a rainbow in its wake.

That looks like a refreshing drink indeed. Great close-up shot. The ice cubes look small and it’s still pretty much a full glass of lemon-water. It must have been very hot and the ice cubes melted fast 🙂
