Hydration

San Francisco is known for...
  • The Golden Gate Bridge
  • Fog
  • AT&T Park
  • Tap water
San Franciscan tap water is crisp and deliciously clean, even if it does flow through 60 year old pipes. Hetch Hetchy, may you forever be full. But I still find myself still reaching for a plastic bottle of water out of convenience. It's usually one of those flimsy Crystal Spring or Kirkland bottles that once used to be sturdy, but in recent years have been "environmentally-friendly" with thinner plastic and smaller caps. I at least try to reuse them once or twice, filled with that fresh flow from the tap. But my mom was the first to point out that reusing those bottles were bad for you (high BPA and bacteria).

There are so many options for drinking water. Klean Kanteen, Camelbak, Nalgene, Clean BottleFred WaterBoxed Water. Is it a trend, or just that I'm noticing it now? Whatever it is, this is the way to go. Safe, reusable (or more recyclable), and replenishing. Hydrate before you dominate.
