Well we came home to no water pressure. Pump is running nonstop and can only get to 30 psi. Called well company and he thinks the down line has a leak. We had to go to Des' parents to shower. They are coming out tomorrow to fix it.

Oh boy!

Good morning Mike, Jim, Cory and everyone else.

Good luck with the water Cory. I woke up to the same thing in 1999, 2 weeks after buying the place and -18*F. Galvanize downpipe corroded through. 440' of pipe, new pump and new wiring. $2k back then. I think $300 is a steal. That's a pun cuz you catch bad guys. Get it? Couldn't help it, it's M**day and I'm gonna take it out on someone.

Oh, and the well was only 12 years old.

Good morning Jim, Cory, Jim and everyone else stopping by today!

Everyone have a great Monday!

That sucks about your well Cory! Hopefully it is only the $300 to fix it. Good luck!

Yea, the guy said he was pretty sure it was a hole or leak in the down pipe. He did not seem to make a big deal out of it and said he would come out this morning. I am guessing if it was major he would have come out yesterday for the big bucks.

Good morning everyone!! Dang busy weekend again. Hopefully, things will start to slow down soon ... uhh ... who am I kidding. Spent Friday and Saturday in Shakoppee for my brother's wedding. Great days. Then spent yesterday afternoon working on the shed. Dang that takes a while with only one person working on it.

Have a great Monday. Well ... make the best of it you can anyway.
