Growing Every Day: Laying the Line

Well, this weekend was a whole lot of hard work. It should have been easier, but as with any good project, there was a "snag" along the way. Roots to cut through, ditches to dig a bit deeper and angled a bit different, rock to dig "through" and a broken pipe or two to repair along the way. It made for hard work on the part of the menfolk, and a joyous result at the end of it all.

Because I didn't get a picture of the trailer gutted with the exception of the bathroom, I popped in to show the inside progress so far. It doesn't look like much I know, but it really is a lot, and this weekends work had NOTHING to do with the inside of the trailer.

Some of the menfolk digging deeper and cutting their way through to get down the hill...LOTS of roots and rocks along the way...

Insert broken pipe(s) here. One broken water pipe we had to repair, and one pipe for the electrical line broken. Knew exactly what to do for the water pipe, but took some "weighing of the options" to figure out what they wanted to do about the electrical piping.

More menfolk hard at work on some of the pipes...these boys will never know how much we appreciate all the hard work they have put into this project with us, it would take us a million times longer to get things done without their help...

Digging is done, and now pipe being laid...

YAY....piping for the electrical line to live in....

They got it all in and I got a VERY enthusiastic phone call from my dear sweet husband when the electrical was all connected... To say he was excited about how much power we have down on our humble section of land would be the understatement of the year..

and just because I LOVE the beauty that God created for us to enjoy, I decided to add a couple more pics that has nothing to do with the work...
