    Sorry I'm late to reply here... yes, we have water. We are very lucky that the road was built up for logging trucks years ago, so we can get big rigs in there when the road is dry and hard. We had a big well drilling truck punch a well beside the cabin and we installed a hand pump (Simple Pump) that works really well. Unfortunately, we have a lot of iron in the water and have to use a filter off the pump (it's made for that). Pretty obvious, if we used the well more, it would help, but we can't so... we deal with it. Odd, when we first drilled the well, for 2 years, the water was crystal clear... :rolleyes:

    Be careful what you say Stinny lives south of God's country like a number of us do.

    This is one herring choker who considers that grounds for getting out the big steamer and is now south of the line..

    I did. I apparently need attention. :picard: Or maybe a picture of some cool equipment and/or work being done by it. Got any pics of your tractor working? :D
