House Update

image

So, after about a month of waiting around, I finally got word that my building permit is ready. We’ll start the foundation early next week, but in the meantime, I’ve been putting in a spectacular water system with the help of the Rock Hound and the Diesel Mechanic (I shudder to think where I’d be at this point without the help of the Diesel Mechanic). I’ve currently got 5,000 gallons of my own water stored, and by the end of summer I should have 10,000.  We ran two-inch pipe from the tanks, so the pressure is actually pretty good considering we have a short drop (it’s all gravity fed). The Rock Hound knows all about fire fighting, too, so he set me up with my own fire hydrant by the house. We’re going to put another one in by the trailer.  Very cool!

Unfortunately, we accidentally cut the town water while we were digging a trench to lay the pipe. It was easily remedied, though, and no one ever seemed to notice (or at least they didn’t say anything if they did). Nevertheless, it made for an exciting half hour around here.

  1. You do have a point here. I have read a lot about this on other articles written by other people, but I must admit that you have proved your point here! Will be back to read more of your quality information!
