Dig Day 5

Here we are on day 5 and making steady progress. These are pics throughout the day. Getting close to 4 feet... Halfway! We also started to run into some shale at 44" Deep.

The next few days call for some pretty bad storms, but as you can tell from the pics, we really could use the rain. Digging is like trying to cut through rock at this point. It is so dry that the snow had very little effect, and right now, we are some 14" below where we should be for rainfall. Am glad our pond and well are spring fed or we would be up a "dry" creek without a paddle...
