Reply #77: My neighbors' new well cost $6000 to drill

[Tsiyu]

Their in-laws down the road spent half that to get hooked to the system, and the pipe didn't have to come that far. For me? at least ten grand.

My spring is constant but not huge capacity, 25 feet down (just enough for a shallow well jet pump) and you are correct. It tastes SO GOOD I miss it!

But even when it's hooked back up, there are hundreds of dollars worth of plumbing to repair due to storm damage, so i will just have to run a hose to the house for a while.

Better than many have it, so i will not complain. I will probably come onto DU to celebrate. My old shoulders are seriously worn out and they will be doing most of the celebrating :toast:


And to all those above who had my back, I love you all. You understand. Without my $20.00 a month dialup I would be a sad puppy and unable to connect with faraway family, my beautiful kids, or keep up with current events or e-mail my boss who is a long distance phone call (but my friends would be happier cuz they could reach me on the phone easier ;) )
