Dave chases down water towers (view Dave’s water tower collection) and so we stopped in Cherokee. Most of the time I leave the water-tower-picture-taking to Dave, but this one, I had to shoot also.

There was the strongest odor of sulfur around the tower.

  1. Probably they have sulphur in their water there———
    We once had a well that smelled so strong of sulphur it made me sick—–we had the water tested many times—-& it was safe to use-it just had a very strong sulphur smell——-I didn’t use it to drink or cook with—but used it on the garden & to water the livestock with! I couldn’t stand the smell!!!!!!!!!!
