More Well Pictures

Rich is mixing a bucketful of cement to pour down the well around the casing.....
Keith is pouring it in......
and I thought you might like to see a picture of the modern rig that drilled the well. Just goes to show---never judge by appearances. =)

In other news...Rich and Keith are on their way home from Port au Prince, today. They've been gone five days, so we're eager to see them again. They had some trouble on the way down--flat tires, hot brakes and rear axle--and we're praying they have a better trip home.

They have a good load on the big truck; they're hauling materials for building projects at Bombard, fuel and propane, and the goods which arrived on the crate. The crate was an answer to prayer; it was released on Tuesday, and they were able to pick it up Wednesday morning. We're especially thankful, because it means we can take the pickup in when we leave for furlough, and have a bit more comfortable trip. It doesn't take the bumps out of the road, but we can make a little better time, and have a seat for everyone.

Yes Marj, we try to blog when we can about our work here in AZ. Some times are more busy than others, so it just depends.

It is www.onthemesa.net
