Been awaiting this as was worrying with new wells all around the two springs up the valley may shut off.    Drillers were completing as I returned from Town Friday so stopped in to see what was doing.  All complete, were gathering up Cribbing and tools, 6' Mud Bit to Stone drill, 140-150' hit the white sand layer and water, drilled on to 340' for buffer as usual.  As was speaking with driller he added the tablets they do after drill could hear plop plop as hit water, was only 7' below top of mud casing.  Said was likely a better well than anyone else nearby has.  Went down this morning to retrieve the 180, stump to pull and a few shrubs wife is done with, could hear running water.  Well is Artesian.


Fitters will add drain line to creek pool behind barn for casing then set two hydrants, the surge tank and a Cattle waterer system, should not have a issue with water from now on!!!

Looks like you made out good on that one.
Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God.

Yes two prizes for sure. Can’t beat that deal.
We’ve been dry this year too.
