slow but steady...

Well as you can see I have gotten some pictures of our place up now. Here are just a couple of the most recent additions. The electric pole and meter box, and the new water well and pressure tank. I'm pretty sure that the well guys had to go around 300' because neighbors on both sides of us had to go that deep. Notes to all who follow our steps: The drilling of the well isn't cheap! Our Well service charges $14 a foot and has a minimum charge of 200 feet...Although I haven't received the bill as of this post I anticipate paying at least $4200 just for the hole...cased sanded and ready to except the pump. The pump I am using is a submersible type with the surface pressure tank. The pressure tank reduces pressure bumps as the down-hole pump cycles on and off, and it provides a constant pressure to the service. I also expect the pump and pressure tank, pressure switch and all associated plumbing, to add up to near $3500 more. It is really cool how these guys do business with just a handshake and my word...but I'm sure they wouldn't hesitate in taking it all back, if the check isn't on its way!!
