After being out of power and then out of water due to no power last weekend, we again found ourselves without water Thursday night after a big thunder storm. Saturday the well pump controller was replaced, but since that still didn't get things flowing, the PVC pipe in the well sleeve was pulled. At 300 or so feet, a break was discovered and repaired.
We are now totally prepared for losing water pressure. We have several gallon jugs filled in the basement and during an outage, we fill up emptied containers wherever we go. This weekend, that included the neighbors, the town public restrooms, a local restaurant and hanging the jugs out the windows while we went thorough a car wash. Kim and I are also looking for a sun shower to hang out back and I've been eying outhouse plans on the internet.
