water

This morning in the car driving the girls to school, Ella was asking about the hay bales in the paddocks. I proceeded to explain that these bales were for the animals on the farms for feed during the long Winter - then the question about how do the animals drink - does the farmer put out buckets of water? I explained about the dams - then Ella asked what happens when the dams are dry and there is no water for the animals - I said the farmers buy their water and big tankers bring the water - I asked the question, where do you think the water comes from
"from the IGA supermarket - it comes in bottles Mum - you know that !!
