Awake: 6:45am Temp 28 sleep 6+48 light rain/freezing rain overnight @ Nicktown.
We stayed inside our motorhome most of the day & evening. Kathy spent a lot of time searching for (things) for our house, comparing prices, free shipping, etc. I also continued searching on line for high tech items that Matt & Rick talked about when our high tech kids were here over Christmas. @ 9:28am, the Somerset Well Drilling Company's trucks were maneuvering into our circular drive.
And this dump truck brought in the pea gravel.
They drilled (2) wells last Friday & are here to drill (6) more & finish the drilling phase. The weather was miserable but those guys didn't complain one bit. It appears that they used about 3/4th of a truck load of small gravel filling those holes.
These guys are close to finishing up with the 8th hole.
I didn't realize that they filled the tubing with water before they started pushing the tubing down (180) ft. Makes sense though, if any water was in the well, they would be pushing that tubing against the water a lot more than just an empty tube. Look close & you can see one of the guys pushing the tube into the eighth hole.The guys were organized & on their way to Sumerset, PA before 3:00pm.
Dinner: Italian Sausage with veggies & toast.
After dinner, Zack Skyped us for (1) hr & 25 min. He brought us up-to-date on their recent trip to Chicago; they met with the wedding counselor from the church where they will marry; attended a reception at the hall where the wedding reception will be & Zack got Invisoline braces on his teeth. All this & they still had some time to socialize with family & friends; a busy 4 days for sure!
I asked Zack to e-mail me a suitable synopsis in English of the problem I was having with my Sony camera taking pictures after having taken 9,999. And he agreed to do that.
Lights out: 11:46pm.
