Here's 400 hundred feet of water line and two farm hydrants which will be put in tomorrow. Xenia Rural Water Company put in the meter pit and activated the meter so we will have water as soon as we decide to turn on the spigot. Will need the water soon for the well drillers as they will be drilling four 200 feet deep wells for the geothermal heat pump which will heat and cool the house.
The first 100 feet of driveway gravelled today with 3" clean limestone. Getting ready for the heavy cement trucks tomorrow when they come to pour the footings. The heavy trucks will help compact a good roadbed for the future. Only about 600 more feet to put in. So we will have a circular drive for turning around the RV.
Rick dug in the rear footings with the big John Deere this morning defining the sun room. Meanwhile Jeff on the mini cut in about 250 of six foot deep water line trench. Need the depth so the lines won't freeze in these Iowa winters.

Very productive day. Jeff about froze though, so said it's long underwear tomorrow!
