ditchin it

I have told you that one of the things on Howard's to do list is the laundry room.  Ok, so I know this does not look like a laundry room but a laundry room does need water even here at Sunbury.

These two men were hired to dig a trench.  On day 2 of the dig, they didn't come back- because the work was to hard.  And yes, it was. I do believe that this was the day it hit 110 degrees in the sun. I wouldn't joke around about a thing like that (it was hot even in the shade and these guys weren't).  The ditch is 18-20 inches deep, 8 inches wide and.........Wait for it............110 feet long.  Yes, really.   They got about 1/3 of the way done the first day.


Dick and Howard had to cut off the water to the camp from the water tower...... It wasn't out too long. The next day 3 new  guys came and almost finished :) but they hit rock.   At least it's another days pay.
