WATER!

We are getting closer and closer to moving onto our property - but as a family, we all agreed that we couldn't move out there until we had water at the house site. We have a river on the property, but it's at the bottom, and the buildings are at the top, for the view. No one wants to haul water half a mile, uphill!

So, the menfolk have been working to install water lines from a nearby source (about a mile away), to our property. The lines are now installed - hurrah! - and the system is receiving improvements (building a tank, installing valves, etc), but basically the water is in!

To make you feel more a part of the process, here are some pictures of the work:

Boy am I ever so grateful for already piped in water and weekly delivery of nice, safe bottled water to drink.

Hey Trish
Do you need a pump for your water system or is it gravity feed? Just wondering! : ]
