Morning:
Finally another big work day on the site. Garret and Dan have been getting other commitments out of the way so they dedicate their time to this project. Dan and Martin arrived in the morning with a smaller excavator that had a shovel and a dozing blade. They filled in the side trench to the well and around the electric pedestal.
During the final fill-in of the trench around the well head, Garret discovered the filling of the well trench had inadvertently pulled on the electrical conduit causing it to shift away from the wellhead. This shift cracked and damaged the conduit where it was attached to the well head. Cory replaced the damaged conduit and repaired the electrical connection.

Afternoon:
A true sign that the project is booming!
Bill's Sani-Kan arrives on the site:
Garret and Mark tamped the freshly filled in dirt around the pedestal and built a form for pouring a concrete slab around the base of the pedestal.
Tamping down the dirt is a dusty business. Four wheel barrow loads of concrete were just right!
