Our plan is to move into temporary shelter for a year, design the house and build it next summer.
Art is set up to install our water well.
He is using a cable tool, which pounds down instead of rotary drilling. It's an old style well process that has changed from using wooden rigging and steam power to steel rigging and diesel motor. The advantage of this process is fracturing in the bedrock which allows more water to find the hole more quickly. Wells aren't as deep and therefore tend to be cheaper. As of June 18, Art had reached 50 feet down.
