We love to talk about WATER

Yes, it seems like this time of year has brought us closer with our appreciation of water. It is our constant topic of conversation and everyday seems to bring us something new to appreciate.

Last Friday, March 2nd we finally got running water after 43 days! Hooray!

It was a long and humbling process to say the least.

Currently, we are in the middle of a fresh snow storm, freezing temperatures and even though 'let the sink drip over night' precautions were made, we are without water again. At this point I relinquish control and know that I took 3 showers last week! Also, this will not be a long and hard freeze like last time, the 7 day forecast says so!

Spring is on it's way folks. We continue to have thaws that clear a muddy path, bright sunny days and even though new snow frequently greets us, among the white, there are some brave pieces of green starting to poke out from the earth. SPRING is COMING!

This is how we haul water: by hand and by sled! And our makeshift sink.
