One Happy Water Pump

I've mentioned before on my blog that we haul our own water from the community well and chronicled the task in this series here:

Kev took over the responsibility of keeping our tank filled with water. He's mentioned the woes and trials of getting water recently in these posts:

When Getting Water Isn't Easy
When Getting Water Isn't Easy - Again

Last year, when our temperatures dropped down to 8°F, our pipes froze and our pump broke. We were without water for several days. MIL and her hubby showed up to rescue us and replace the pump.

Last year, dh was away from home for several months, but thank goodness he's home with us now, and he took the initiative to cover the pump and give it its own warming lamp. It's one happy pump! :-)

Until next time.
