One for the house, one for the well.

My dad went up and drove the backhoe a little bit, with Brandon on the phone telling him how to. He was pretty excited about it, ha. 

I guess they are at 220 feet for the well. They hit water, but then they hit clay, which apparently trapped the water above it in, so they actually need to keep going. Hopefully they’ll get what they want at around 250!
