Let there be "Water!"

We've had electricity at the cabin for sometime now...but we've been without water. This weekend, the hole for the 1,000 gallon water holding tank was dug and the spring was tapped! 

Kiera's pond now has a little waterfall! Here's a close up...
...and a shot from a distance.
The trickling water makes the most lovely sound. 


Brookey playing fetch

The water was still quite chilly...
Kiera and Brooke didn't stay in very long.

Doing a happy dance? Throwing rocks? Preparing to do a 
cartwheel? Not sure, but I know one thing for sure...Kiera
had a great day at the farm!
Because the cabin sits so far back in the woods, we needed
to improve the pathway back to it...first step, dig a trench and put in 
drainage pipes, then lay highway mat and put rocks down.
It took all of us to move the tank from the cabin to its
new spot in the woods!
Let the digging begin!

Love the flower in the moss on the rock
She's in!
Barn Update...


Can you spot the snake?

Adventures in the golf cart with Ryan!
After the water tank was buried, we headed down to
the spring to watch the guys tap the spring.
The put the pipe in place, then gently tapped it into the
spring with the bucket of the digger. 


Kiera to the rescue with the wrench to open the pipe
Brooke!
