Before installing the water system facilities, they hooked a pump up to a generator to see what kind of water we had in the well. As mentioned before, we had the well drilled years ago and it has just been sitting there rusting in the sun ever since. We were a little nervous to check the water since there appeared to be a "bend" in the casing and maybe some "collapse" of the surrounding formations during the drilling process. These are not comforting words to water well neophytes. Alas, all worries were dissipated as the roaring hum of the generator pumped out deliciously cold water. The water isn't crystal clear, but we are hoping it will clear with use. Looks like our slice of heaven will have plenty of water to keep us happy and self-sufficient for years to come.
