Same Story, Different Ending.....

This big yellow drilling truck has been here before, and now, it is back..... and has been around our house for the past 6 days.....

1. The guy came and dug 2 water wells the first time.  One of them they hit was so to GOOD TO BE TRUE.  It was about 15 gallons a minute, which was fabulous, again, all we really need this for is the yard, not the inside of the house.  After, a month, they came to do something to the well and get it ready to lay the pipe, and there was NO water, at A.L.L.

Over the past 6 days, the water guys have been back to try and find a different place to get some water.  They have been digging nearly all over the land around our house. 

2.  They dug near the road (like picture above), and thought it was pretty good 1/2 gallons a minute, the next morning they came back, and there was NOTHING.  In the end, this one might can do about 1/4 of a gallon a minute.....

3.  They dug about 200 feet from that well, and that was ZELCH dry, no water there. 

4. They crossed the road, and tried again yesterday, nothing there. 

5. They are in the process of working on the fifth well right now, and we are wanting to see how it goes. 

I'm really not getting my hopes up for anything after being let down all these previous times, especially when they said it was good, and then just all of sudden gone. 

In the mean time, we met with VR last Monday, and discussed the details of the house.  He is working on the estimate; hopefully we'll here from him in a week, and can get started breaking ground!!

I'll keep you posted. 

Exciting, Scared, Anxious, Fun.....

I'm a ball full of mixed emotions.  I think I've been there before in this house process.... And I'm thinking I'll probably just stay a ball of mixed emotions through the whole thing.

FINALLY....we have the HUGE plans in our own hands!! But, now, I am scared to death.  We are going to meet with the builder and go room-to-room to get started on the estimate process. This seems fun to me.  Getting to pick out what I want room-to-room.  Jason doesn't really have major opinions on what the house looks like.  But then sometimes he surprises me.  Mostly, he says, "you are the one going to be cleaning it, so you pick what you want." I think getting the estimate could take 2 weeks. We are both just so ready to know the how much, so we can move on.
