Our Life In The Country

WATER....

Right now Kerry and I don't have any. I was going to wash the potatoes for dinner (we are having guests), turned on the kitchen faucet, and nothing came out. Kerry checked everything outside to make sure a hose had not been left on. This is about the fourth time in two weeks that this has happened. The water in the well is below the pump so the pump can't get at it.

I think this means we will be investing in a new well. That's roughly $6,000. Our well guy, Steve, said he thinks we can get a really good well down behind the house. He's going to recommend someone to do the drilling.

I told Kerry Merry Christmas, Happy New Years, Happy Anniversary and Happy Birthday. What a romantic gift to give to each other.
