Thanks William..
With your well drilling equipment, drilling wells might pay the mortgage, as
might selling some firewood to folks who are cold.  I also have that option,
selling a bit of wood, that is.
With the exception of pumping water from the well, I think I would do without
electricity, too.  The well is just too deep for a hand pump.
