It's good to know...

a dude with a backhoe, especially when there are big holes to be dug. That's my good neighbor DH, a maestro at manipulating heavy equipment, excavating a trench between the well head and the pressure tank at my residence (click to enlarge).

I have been busy the last several days making repairs to a broken water line, the legacy of an extraordinarily hard/cold winter in southern Utah (global warming is hell). The new water line is in the ground, has been pressure tested, and life returns to normal.

And you have to admit that the views are beautiful from this work site.
